Default Re: Allergies

I used to live in one of the "hot" allergy spots in California -- by Walnut Creek. We have more allergists per peson than anywhere else in the US (or so the claim goes). I was pretty lucky that I didn't suffer much. Even so, I'd go through a couple of weeks of pure misery during the spring and fall. Here, I think I've experienced about 2 or 3 days of the sinus headache, drips and sneezes. Huge difference!!!

Be prepared for women's perfumes (to which I have some pretty bad reactions), though. They are very prevalent here and some women think a half a bottle at a time is almost enough.
