So I've just had to buy my first lot of hayfever tablets, been sneezing and sniffing a lot these last few days with the great weather we've had

It's not a cold either, having hayfever for years you get used to the difference between a cold and hayfever symptoms

Thankfully its not too bad at the moment because it's early in the year, but come July I'll look a mess. Going to go the doctors this year and get the jab I think as it really does ruin your Summer

So is anyone else having hayfever slowly creep up on them?
 
I hate hayfever :mad:

Never used to get it when I was younger only developed it at the age of 17, it totally ruins my summer.

Luckily when I'm abroad on holiday I don't suffer with it, so there's always a good excuse to go away :)
 
I am thinking that mine has started early again this year. I always thought i was more affected by grass pollen but seems tree pollen has been getting me as well.
 
Boots (is that a competitor? Surely not) are doing 2 for 1 on all hayfever products by the way

So stock up while it lasts
 
Boots are incredibly expensive. Go to an independant chemist and ask for them by their generic name. Cost you roughly £3. The same at boots is £9. Shockingly expensive. Thats how much they will be charging the NHS for them too. I buy from a shop in my town called Savers (Might be a chain shop!) get them for 79p for 7.
 
Boots isn't that expensive. On 2for1 you can pretty much match Asda, which isn't bad.

I buy Galpharm though, same content just a cheaper brand.
 
Waking up every morning at the moment with itchy eyes and a nose blocked with thick mucus and blood. Not nice.

It's tree pollen that gets me, in a couple of months during the height of Summer when lots of people are suffering I'll be fine.

Nothing yet, might just get some hayfever tablets now though to get ahead of it.
 
I get it all year round, constant blood in my nose every month of the year - different levels of it though but I always have it even if very slightly :(
