Sorry I have been so busy lately I haven't been able to post. I am also not sure what to post about so I will post about a weird allergy dream I had and then some Q+A.
I dreamed I went to my allergist and told him the inside of my nose felt weird. He examined and looked inside and told me that a patch of very tiny flowers were starting to grown in each nostril. I asked him to take them out and he told me its impossible to remove them. I asked how this could happen and why I never heard of it before. He said that its a rare thing that sometimes happens and no-one knows why. I left and was freaking out about it and what would happen when they started pollinating. Everyone I talked to just said 'oh well', like it was no big deal. After that I woke up.
Q+A:
Q: Out of all the things that you're allergic to, is there one allergen you react most severely to?
A: I react severely to most of the things I am allergic to. There are 3 things that are the worst, but its hard to say if one is worse than the other 2. Its cat dander, ragweed pollen, and sage pollen. With those I don't get a build-up of symptoms, it all just comes on really quickly and gets worse from there. The effects last a long time after I am no longer exposed to them.
Q:How do you deal with air travel?
A: I try to avoid it as much as possible. It makes my head and ears hurt really bad with pressure and congestion. It takes a day or so for the horrible headache to go away so the 1st day I go somewhere I can't do anything.
Q: Are you allergic to perfumes/scents and has that caused issues in public transit?
A: Yes I am, and it has. When my allergies act up I usually try to run off but in public transit I am pretty much stuck and really close to what is bothering my nose. I get many weird looks and its pretty embarrassing.
Not sure if I will be able to post again before the end of the year but I'd like to. Give me some ideas, some feedback on my posts, and I am always happy to keep doing Q+A. Feel free to contact me on e-mail or yahoo messenger too if you want to chat.
Happy Holidays!
