Now I am coughing, sneezing, and my eyes are watering!
Open-top cars and hay-fever aren't a good combination, especially when driving in the countryside...
Just been out for pleasant drive on randomly-selected Suffolk roads - not a lot of traffic - nice.
Now I am coughing, sneezing, and my eyes are watering!

dust mask...
12 and 10 year old sons suffering with it at the moment - not fun!
Mine is bad this year - I normally start it early, and finish early, sometime around the beginning of June. It's lingering this year due to the hot, dry conditions.
Two of my sons get this so bad they can just about work some days, a female employee also suffers . This year all of them have gone to a local chemist and paid for the injection to stop it. All 3 have said they would have gone sooner if they had known about it earlier. It has changed there lives and they are hayfever free.
What injection is that?
I belive its called KANALOG
the pharmacy that done my sons are as follows they may be able to tell you someone local to you

It's actually Kenalog. Tempting but it's far from mild stuff.
Intramuscular corticosteroid- good for allergy but bad for the rest of the body's systems. Weight gain, high blood pressure, weakens the immune
system etc etc.
It's no miracle cure- I've got a couple of patients who have such bad hayfever they have to have it- this year one found it did precisely
nothing (whereas it had worked previously).
I'd speak to your GP first- they can check whether you've tried everything else possible first. The chemist is likely to just be happy to
take your ££££- they do, after all, have a vested interest....
