Allergies?
Since last Wednesday night I've been feeling lousy. I lost my voice and then started getting congested. My sinuses have been flaring up, my nose is swollen and my throat is scratchy. I am constantly coughing because of the itchiness.
I figured it was allergies and have been taking allegra ever since. I don't usually have allergies (I used to but when I moved 7 years ago they stopped). Allegra has worked for me in the past but it's going on 5 days now and I haven't really seen any improvement.
My question is, do you think this is allergies or just a nasty cold? Do you think if it is allergies that allegra doesn't work for me anymore?
My mother feels the same way and she's going to the doctors today so I'm hoping to find some answers. I do think we both are being affected by the pollen right now. I guess I'm just wondering if there are other people going through the same thing.
Re: Allergies?
I wonder the same thing. I came down with the same symptoms on Friday. I feel OK, but the throat and congestion is killing me!
I'm thinking it is allergies, but i haven't ever been affected in the past.
