HELP, what to do about horrible congestion/allergies!?!


Question: HELP, what to do about horrible congestion/allergies!?
I've been so sick since Christmas! My allergies won't go away! I've tried liquid claritin, benadryl, a prescribed nasal spray, a neti pot with warm distilled water and neti salt which makes it all WORSE and brings me to a sneezing fit and an extremely runny nose making my Post Nasal Drip much worse! I drink plenty of vitamin C every day to try to help, but it and all my medications do absolutely nothing! I'm so miserable. What else can I do?! I can't go to the doctor because I'm currently without insurance, and anyway, my doctor only gave me the nasal spray.

Sometimes congestion/allergies could be taken from the sort of diet, if you're eating shrimps, lobsters, crabs and salty foods (junk foods) i may suggest you have to stop eating those kinds because those can worsen the allergies... When your cooking/steaming rice try to inhale the 'smoke' from the steaming rice, best if you're by the rice cooker and start inhaling the smoke when the water starts to boil, the longer you'll inhale the smoke of the boiling/steaming rice the better. You may do it over and over again all you need is patience... doing that process and zertec 2x a day might be good.
Eat fresh fruits with lots of vitamin C and vegetables would be better. Hope i could help you in some way, goodluck <3

my experience



go to a clinic. you can buy a air Humidifier. this put mist in the air and makes it easier to breath. they have then at wal mart for like 40 bucks maybe even cheaper. take a lot of zinc as well. since is proven to help colds. not just vitamin C. and of course there is the soup. i love that. try tomato soup as well. that is very good for you. try to avoid dairy products and sugar.
