Living With Chronic Pain: Stupid Allergies
Argh! (It is talk like a pirate day…) Where do I start? I live in IL, otherwise known as the Prairie State, and I am not sure about the rest of the country but allergies here are brutal! We had a really mild winter and I think it never got cold enough to put plants in their dormant state and then they bloomed too early in the spring. It’s the worst allergy season we have had in a very long time, my son even recently had to go on an inhaler. Starting last Thursday night I actually started running a fever and was in bed from Saturday on. So annoying! I hate missing weekends. I’m still having a hard time and having a HUGE field of goldenrod/ragweed next to the playground I work in probably ISN”T helping. LOL
So my question is…how do you cope with it? I get suggestions all the time (ex stinging nettle etc) but I have to be careful with my meds and fibro with what I take. Any suggestions so I don’t have to spend next weekend in bed? I have recently gone gluten-light in my diet to see if it can alleviate the strain on my immune system but I am open to other suggestions.
