Just Q+A today

I am trying to keep up with my 1/week posts, and I am glad I got some Q+A because I can't think of much else to write about right now!

I am fully recovered from being sick.  The biggest drawback being that I lost like 2 weeks of being able to get work done and I need to get lot of work done when I am able to.

Just 2 for Q+A today:

Q:What month is generally worst for you, allergy wise?
A: I would have to say September.  As the spring then summer goes on, all the pollens make me more and more sensitive to everything I am allergic to, then I get hit with ragweed.  Ragweed is one of my worst allergies, and it makes me pretty much useless when its out and even after, especially through September.  In Oct things stat to improve. 

Q:What was one of the most uncomfortable situations in which you had to deal with your allergies? Like somewhere you had to remain despite obvious sneezing, etc??
A:  I have had many of those kinds of situations.  I blogged all about one back on 9/12/10.  I'll tell another one here though.  In undergrad, I was in a group for a big class project and 10 of us were meeting at someones apartment and we were mainly going through everything I put together for my part of the project. Pretty soon after I got there my allergies started to act up and they got worse and worse.  I wasn't really able to run off cause I was important to that meeting and I had to wait for my ride anyway.  It was very uncomfortable and embarrassing to have to do that while my allergies were making me such a mess and I wasn't able to run off much at all.  So not only did I have to stay, but I was the main focus and had to do stuff.  Ugh I hated that so much, it was torturous.


Please keep up the questions so I don't have to think of much else to write about!  If I am on, drop me a line on yahoo and say hi if you'd like.

Quick post and one Q+A

Sorry its been a bit since I posted.  I was planning on posting about once/week, but I got really sick with pneumonia and I just am getting over it now.

My allergies haven't been bothering me too much lately.  Through Jan and usually most of Feb I usually do better since there isn't pollen to deal with, the heating systems no long have a bunch of dust sitting in them to get stirred up, and all the holiday scents and such are gone.  As long as I can avoid the other allergens that randomly pop up, I do ok for this time of year compared to the rest.

I just have one question to answer today:

Q: What symptom of your allergies do you find most difficult to deal with?
A: Sneezing is usually the worst.  Its the one that is the most obvious to people.  If I didn't sneeze all the time, it would be easier to deal with my allergies, and to hide it from others.  Its very interruptive and it can be really embarrassing at times, and it can get pretty tiring.

Thats it for today.  Please leave me comments and/or questions, and feel free to say hi on yahoo chat if I am on.
