@beadweaver: Thanks for your response. Hope you start feeling better. This came on so fast it scares me. I worry about those of us who already have illnesses that may mask this.
The pollen does enough to make us feel miserable by itself, I didn't even realize it was getting this bad.
@Safety44:
I've been doing this since I was 18. That's the first time it hit me so bad I landed in the emergency room.
After nearly 30 years it really ticks me off when I go to a doctor and tell him/her, here it comes.
Starts with ear aches, sore throat, dry eyes and runny nose. After a few months of the side to side flip flop the cough and complete runny nose starts. If in three days or so I don't get it turned around, it goes way off the charts. The two days I was in bed, I considered driving to the emergency room for a breathing treatment. I just did not want that bill. Doc refused to renew script without a visit. F that, he charged me $700 last time and told me the drugs I need he can't give me because they are on the list I must pee for. F that too.
When I wind up in the hospital, I'll call an attorney.
Really PO'd about it because it's been a lifetime thing with actual time line records and preventable. I try to be pro active. This is the very first time in three years I've been sick sick.
Rain rain come today.
Come and wash this pollen away. 4951
