Thanks for all the posts guys!

Health: I’m just curious but what else do you think it can be?

We have HEPA filters and all our beds are covered with the dustmite covers, we have carpet in my room but my doctor said it doesnt really make that much of a difference (she is the head of the department of allergy and immunology in cornell)

I tried the neti pot but I feel like I have water in my nose for the next couple of hours and I cant deal with it.

I am a young person with no anxiety of any sorts or any emotional problems…

I’ll ask my doctor about the other medicines you mentioned instead of singulair…

I have not been sleeping and even when I fall asleep I wake up to sneeze… and cough… I’m so ridiculously exhausted from all this blowing and not sleeping… so I think I like the benadryl idea at night but is it ok for me to take it every night? I don’t want to get addicted (chas v’shalom)and also sort of immune to it if I take it to much…

psocha bchochma: thanks for the tip I’ll try it!

2 scents: thanks for the tips… B”H I’m no where near overweight so thats out – but I know that it’s the dustmite that is causing it and the annoying thing with that is you can’t get rid of it they are everywhere!

I really appreciate all the feedback! and to all those allergy sufferers out there – feel better!
