Hay Fever
By: Julie
Achoo! You might have heard of hay fever. About 40 million people suffer from hay fever each year, and over one billion dollars are spent each year treating allergies. Spring and fall are allergy seasons. They are allergy seasons because they both have a lot of wind and pollen and dust get blown everywhere. You may wonder how hay fever occurs: your body’s immune system has an extreme reaction to airborne particles that are normally harmless. Most people have been experiencing these symptoms: sneezing, watery eyes, runny nose, postnasal drip, nasal congestion, coughing, facial pain or pressure, or fatigue. Some people prefer to go to their primary physician or allergist. I much more prefer natural remedies or medicine to the over the counter medicine like Clariton. You can try natural remedies if you like. Make sure you get the right medicine! Do you have allergies? If so, what are you allergic to? Does anyone in your family have allergies?

No, I don't have any allergies that I know of right now. In my family, my sister is allergic to hair oil. My mom and dad are not allergic to anything. Though, I get watery eyes and lots of sneezing during Spring.
I am the only on in my family that has allergies. My allergies are nuts and peanut butter. I can only eat certain nuts like almonds. Slowly my parents want me to get out of it so the tell me a little each day, but of course I don't.
I am allergic to pollen, dust, a type of orange, something in sunscreen, honeydew, walnuts, and pecan. As you can see I'm allergic to a lot of things. My sister is also allergic to Walnuts and i don't think my mom, dad, and little brother are allergec to anything. Well, guess i have to find out!
No, I don't have allergies, but my mom does. See thinks that pollen is a very annoying allergy. She, like most people with allergies have to deal with it. My mom uses this nose spray that helps a lot. I am so glad that I don't have allergies.
I am allergic to pollen and dust. It gets annoying because when I walk to school, I go through the place where the second and third graders plant their fruits and vegetables. Right now, flowers are blooming, and I sneeze several times when I walk past it. My mom also has allergies to pollen.
My family and me are allergy-free.
We do not suffer from this problem.
I am allergic to pollen. When I was little I used to suffer more then now. I think that I suffer less because my body might have gotten used to the pollen. My symptoms are really itchy eyes, stuffy nose, and a runny nose. This year my symptons were only itchy eyes.
Yes, I have allergies. I am allergic to fresh mangoes and pollen. My whole family has pollen allergies.
I am allergic to pollen. When I go too near pollen my eyes get itchy.My brother Is also allergic to pollen and the exact same thing happens to him when he gets too close to pollen.
I am allergic to pollen. It makes my eyes itch like crazy. It also makes me sneeze a lot. It only happens to me when there is a lot of pollen. No one else in my family has allergies, only me.
No, I am not allergic to anything, and neither is anybody in my family. I am really glad about this because I don't have to worry about any allergic reactions or getting too close to anything.
My sister is allergic to diary but she could have a little everyday.if she has too much she could get a really bad stomach ache. My mom is also allergic to dairy. I 'm sort of allergic to food coloring.
I once used to be allergic to moxycillan. It's a type of medicine I used to take when I had this type of ear infection in India. After a while of taking it, my doctor figured out that I was allergic to it. Now I'm no longer allergic to it.
