Nasonex perscription only but my daughter and me are on it and it helps a ton

Empty chairs at empty tables, the room silent, forlorn.

It really sounds like you have an infection, and need to see a dr- Your probably gonna need antibiotics- not decongestants.

Bad sinus problems, if not treated can lead to ear, nose and throat problems. The dizziness is probably coming from your ears (inner ears). I know because I have the same problem and the doctor explained it all to me.
Go to the doctor and get it checked out Tim because you may have an infection which all the allergy/sinus tablets wont help

I cant use anything for allergies at the moment but when I do I use the same as koi. I've tried everything else on the market with no success.

I usually take sinutab, I tend to get sinus issues from allergies more than anything. For hives and such I just use a generic OTC antihistamine.

I think i'm startin' to develop allergies... either that or my brain is departing from my nervous system without leaving a note...

I'm all loopy and feel like i'm in left field... i can't focus on anything and it makes me dizzy if i turn my head without closing my eyes. When i open 'em again, it takes a while for my eyes to settle and actually focus on something. And i'm increasingly sensitive to light, i have to close my eyes because they burn if i leave 'em open too long. It's like i'm in a big fog and can't seem to snap out of it. I'm not stuffy, my eyes aren't overly watery, but if i push on my cheekbone under my eye, it's sore...

Allergies? If so, what can i take that won't affect my brain function and make me slow/forget stuff? I can't afford to have that at my job, but i feel the way i'm going i have to do something or i'm going to end up like that anyway.

The weather just turned decent (mid 60-70 degrees now YaY) and pollen is everywhere. I've never had any problems before...

Any ideas on how to reel my brain in would be appreciated

No teeth pain, no stinging when i turn upside down, and it's only sore on my right side under the bone if i give a good pressure. No, i'm not pushing really hard, but it's not a feather touch either.

I'll have to look in to becoming Claratin Clear © ™ ® here in the next day or two.

Thanks

Tim, I agree sounds like sinus. If you start to feel like your teeth are aching, that is another sign.

Sounds like you have a sinus infection if your cheek bones are sore to the touch timmmy What I take for my allergies lately is I think the generic Claritin D (Loratabs or something like that, I can't seem to find the empty box:%) which means I probably need to go get some more myself:%)

Feel better soon, I know allergies are never fun:%)

Timmy, do you get like a head rush or stinging pain anywhere in your head when you turn it upside down, especially quickly?

I have chronic sinusitis, and the best way for me to tell if I'm having another sinus infection is a nasty stinging pain when I turn my head upside down. >.< Just a thought...

Meds that have helped me w/ allergies are Flonase, Rhinocort and Astelin...but those are all sprays and it doesn't sound like you're very conjested. Not to mention they're rx

If it helps, I'm getting a manicure/pedicure Saturday for a Sweet 16...want to help me pick colors?

You may have develop Sinus. Sinutab helps with this problem. If there is pollen in the air, it leads to sinus problems. ***Tiger.

I agree w/ Katie, I used to take Benadryl and i'd be sleeping within a 1/2 an hour. Claritin works really well and you only have to take one a day. I also wanted to mention I have very bad allergies, and have never had such a pain under my eyes as you describe. Is it possible you are sick, possibly something in your sinuses?? Just a thought,

Good Luck!
