beastmaster2452 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 G-Day PIO, Has anyone suffered from hayfever in the UK as a child but as they got older grew out of it, then moved the Aus and started to suffer again. This is my first spring here in Aus (Wagga Wagga / country life) and my eyes are killing me, I'm going to the chemist today but I was just wondering if anyone else had or has the same problem?

Matt :arghh: You will probably find its because your body is not accustomed to the different pollens that are floating around here. so your reaction will be more sever?

BuddysMum Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Yes it's because of the new pollens. You might desensitise yourself again, or you might have to go to your Doctor for a bit of help. Sad news for the two men in my house! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janine the party queen Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Neither of us has ever suffered with hayfever but as soon as the jacaranda started flowering we are both walking around red eyed and sneezing. Someone suggested we start eating local honey to help desensitise us.Will let you know if it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came here hoping that the opposite was true - was I ever wrong! :twitcy: *reaches for the tissues again* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shirlw Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 I have suffered for pretty much all of my life however my doc as a kid always told me that it goes in 7 year cycles but you can have them back to back to back............I never thought that I would ever be free but low and behold after my first year in S.Africa I was for the first time.Cannot remember how long it lasted but it did bloody come back some time after my middle child however it is way milder than when I was a kid/young adult.Anyhoo it makes me wonder if the doc was right all those years ago.......so a bit of hope for new and old sufferers.
