Oh no!
Just when things were going so well...out for a session at the end of last week, came back with itchy eyes. Have spent all Sunday and Monday sneezing for England....I thought I'd outgrown it seeing as I haven't had it for a couple o' years.... Not happy as I'd missed a race as a result and it's left me feeling more kn***ered than PPP!
JODG, Thought that I was going down with the very same, after 40 years of helping farming friends to hay-time and having never been troubled. Then the penny dropped. The wife was away on holiday with her mother and I had more cow's milk than usual to 'polish off'. Stopped drinking milk and 24 - 36 hours later the sneezing and mucous had cleared up - lactose intolerance!
Hayfever Cure :-)
Vitamin C,very high dose.

had heyfeer since i was a wee nipper, still get it but not as bad hate running this time of the year though! it doesn't matter what i take it will still get through.
and yep tried high vit C and lots of milk, i just get used to it and get on with it..
eye drops from the doctor [tablets and nasal sprays help too] - chemist should be able to help you out too
Ta to all for the advice. I hadn't heard about taking ultra high vitamin C though, might give that a try.
Since Tuesday I've been using a prescription only nasal spray, Rhinocort, and it's done the trick. Although I still have itchy eyes, it doesn't develop. A magic cure!
For the first time in my life, I have taken some hayfever medication.
From my teens to my thirties, I got hayfever every Summer, but never severely enough for me to want to take any medication. Since then, I have only been getting it rarely, when pollen levels have been really high. But in the last week or two, I have been getting really severe symptoms on some days; right now, my eyes feel dreadful. So I went down to the pharmacy and got some Cetirizine.
