I'm allergic to certain GTP members. Usually ones that have no respect for women.
Oh jeez, have you been to the infield? I heard some nasty stuff goes down down there.

If I were you, I wouldn't go there without the allergy medicine.
 
Dust and pollen for me.

Re: Zyrtec (from 11 years ago):

I used to use Zyrtec, until I discovered that if I didn't take it for one night I would have massive itching in my scalp, preventing me from sleeping. I looked it up and discovered that I'm not the only one that had these Zyrtec withdrawal symptoms. I promptly switched to Benadryl and have been happy since. (Benadryl is also much cheaper per pill than Zyrtec...when I discovered that three Zyrtec pills cost about the same as 24 Benadryl pills (~$8), the deal was even more sealed.

If my allergies are particularly bad and Benadryl still doesn't help I take a Sudafed as well.

This is kind of ironic to because I'm allergic to Benadryl. When I take it, I cannot sleep at all until it wears off. Zyrtec, on the other hand, I can take just fine.
 
I'm Lactose intolerant, and Allergic to wheat and pollen. Oh yah I have asthma also.
 
I used to be horrible with ragweed and pollen. The last 2 years ahve been good to me. No symptoms. But years before? I couldn't breathe, I'd wake up with my eyes so crusty I couldn't open them, sneezing all the time (10+ times in a row), running/bloody/stuffy noses, itchy throat and mouth etc. My quality of life was so bad I was seriously considering suicide due to allergies alone. I'm not sure what happened but the last two years have been symptom free. Thank. God.
 
what do professional racers do when they have allergies, or when their nose itches in the middle of a race?

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that they probably don't have any severe allergies to have progressed so far in a profession that requires athletic fitness.
 
I have a severe allergic reaction to stupid.
Yes.

As for allergies, I have none, at least in the food/drug department. When it comes to animals, I'm also clean, though this hasn't been tested as thoroughly as with food. As for other things (like pollen), not sure. But I'm clean in the allergy department as far as I know.
 
Seasonal suffer of allergies. The last two years were really bad. Tried so many different brands of allergy meds until I found stuff that actually works for me. Benadryl extra strength is the only stuff that works half decent right now. Used Aerius Allerga and so many others. I think I spent more money on finding what worked compared to the cost of the working stuff lol
 
Mild asthma and allergies, a really bad combination, it is pure hell for me whenever I get near mold and high dust concentrations.
