Valium doesn't do much either.<BR/><BR/>Codeine and its relatives seem to have a stimulant effect instead of making me drowsy.<BR/><BR/>I do remember getting some anti-nausea stuff in the ER for a couple of really bad things that required surgery, and THAT knocked me out, but no way will I ever say that one should take such a strong drug for that purpose :) I think it was Phenergan or something.RioIririhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04358432680088606342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-356827408135871543.post-2447323283086420322008-07-10T18:29:00.000-04:002008-07-10T18:29:00.000-04:00I just want to say, I've been surfing blogs for an...I just want to say, I've been surfing blogs for an hour and am SO DAMNED HAPPY to have found yours before I gave up.<BR/><BR/>Also, if Benedryll doesn't make you drowsy, what does?Imezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00604872676391743281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-356827408135871543.post-2640282354923146452008-07-10T18:12:00.000-04:002008-07-10T18:12:00.000-04:00I felt like this a few weeks ago.

Oh, heaven.<BR/><BR/>The honey need not be raw or organic, though I liked it that way, but it MUST be local to inure you to the pollen. I don't know that it will do much for trees, but most of the other junk floating around should make it into the honey. Take a spoonful every morning and every evening, and you should see a marked decrease (or total cessation) of symptoms in one to two weeks. <BR/><BR/>Local honey. Best. Thing.

It wasn't until I said something to her that she thought to have me checked out by the doctor.<BR/><BR/>Luckily, the climate here (NE UK) isn't nearly as bad, so my allergies don't act up even half as much as they did when I lived back home (Chicago area). For the most part, I can go completely without medication, it's that different.<BR/><BR/>But I don't think I'll ever forget what it was like to step foot out the door and feel like my eyes were going to float right out of my head.nukkingphutzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01957546361672688827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-356827408135871543.post-61386959045620265212008-07-10T12:25:00.000-04:002008-07-10T12:25:00.000-04:00I'm so glad to know I'm not the only one having wa...I'm so glad to know I'm not the only one having wacky internal dialogue with various body parts. <BR/>This has been very reassuring.
