I'm not sure if I've told you before, but I'll go ahead and tell...

I have REALLY bad allergies. I had allergy shots every week for about four years. I also had medication every day for five years. But none of that helped me, and after a while the shots made me worse and the medication became useless, so I had to go see an ENT specialist. It turns out I needed my adenoids removed. Actually, nothing was wrong with my tonsils... But they removed those, too, because "they often enlarge after the adenoid operation". Anyways, moving on.

That helped for a few months. But then towards July and August it was useless. I started getting sick with the exact same thing, every month, ALL OVER AGAIN! So on Tuesday I have to go to the stupid ENT again. I think something is really wrong with me and they're going to have to remove something else. Grr, I knew one surgery would lead to another, then another, then another! My best friend is like that. :-| Just thought I'd vent...

:'(
i hope you dont have to go through surgery
it must be scary to have that happen and not even know why
i hope its nothing major

To be honest, I think it is quite major. I've had this problem for a year now. I've been getting sick with the exact same thing every month. And not just a little cold, a severe one. {mellow}

like flu symptoms?

Kind of. But it gets so damn old; it's the same thing every time. Starts off with a really bad dry throat, then it progresses into congestion, a small cough, then the cough gets REALLY bad.

I get summit like that sometimes: Phlemmy (sp? ) cough, really bad congestion then this REALLY BAD cough comes about. I get it every 2-3 months.

My allergies (all mild):
Kiwi fruit (WTF? So random!)
Grass pollen
Dustmites

Tree Nuts [severe (have epi-pen)] - Almonds, Hazelnuts, Brazil nuts, Walnuts, Cashews.

How do you manage to eat anything? The food I eat consists hugely of many of those!

Like carrots, tomatoes, apples, potatoes and all those delightful nuts.

Hope you get okay soon!
I'm allergic to grass, pollen, hay and something unknown [i had hives/shingles way back from alergies, and nobody knows what caused it]

[gothika]

Aww Poor Chanel !
I got allergies too.

-Anything with fur(mild)
-Grass, Trees and outdoorsy stuff(somewhat severe[I get a bad cold], this is why I don't go outside alot)

When they(the doctors) were checking what I was allergy to they had to put a shot in my back and it had some tree stuff[they really didn't tell me] and I had huge bumps on my back. ughhh. I don't remember how it felt though.

[Chanel]

Ohhh, I remember that! They test your back with allergens.
