It has been bad. Here I am thinking that aging is causing more allergic reactions for me. Now, it seems that my choosing to live here is doing it. Maybe I hit the lottery and it's both in combination. I'm still annoyed by it all. I hate the idea that people might think that I have Covid and be stupid enough to go out and about (Yes, I tested to make sure it's not Covid.).

I have allergies and I take generic Allegra most days. The other allergy meds make me tired.

I have severe asthma and allergies as well. To be honest we were hesitant about moving here because I had heard lots of stories about how both allergies and asthma, if you have them, can get worse in Florida. To my surprise it was the complete opposite. Asthma next to nothing and allergies, when they flare up, are pretty mild.

Living in Florida is bad for allergies because of how many months we have pollen.

When I lived in N.Y. my allergies were from March
until June.
Here they start in February and go until November.

I take Zyrtec which works well but makes me very tired.

Give Allegra a try.
