Night Curt, I gotta go take some more allergy pills and be miserable. This really sucks.

Well, good luck to both of you. I always like to see some friendly competition on the boards!

See my post about allergy shots under the "Turf Races Monday" thread.

Thanks Rupert, this has really ruined my summer and I'm really down. I just woke up at 7:45 Am after going to bed at 11:00 PM last night. Its the allergies doing the sleeping, not me. I'm usually up and and out of bed real early and ready to go. Upon waking my head hurts bad, my mouth tastes yuchy, etc. Its like waking and spending the day with a hangover when you haven't even drank. The Claritin I'm taking isnt touching the allergies to ragweed, simply has no effect. I'm gonna go back to a Dr tomorrow, this is no way to live.

I got slammed by allergies here this summer and found that Zyrtec (I think?) worked WAY better than Claritin for me. Throat still felt a little funny, but I could go outside without feeling like I wanted to die about five feet out the door. I'll look it up to check, just in case the doctor can't recommend much.

Oracle, here's a link to a good article on ragweed allergies, with some treatment options:

In particular, note the section on prescription nasal sprays (NOT the OTC ones, which may not be for allergies). It sounds like your migraines begin as sinus headaches from allergies and I can empathize-- I get the same thing a few times a year, though not from allergies. Migraines suck.
