June1, - June, 4th

I wish this could be a good report however as soon as we checked in to our hotel myself and my husband were both sick with allergies. He felt worse than me so I spent the 4 days playing nurse maid to him. We barely left the room and spent tons of money on meds. We had bought 4 day, PH, WP & more and never used the WP tix. I did add NE to mine since I am going back in October. So our 5th Anniversary was spent at the happiest place on earth sick. Maybe better luck next time.

Sometimes people don't realize how sick allergies can make a person. This spring has been one of the worst EVER for me so far with my allergies. I sound and feel like I have a cold 24/7. And this is going on a month for me now. Don't know if our March trip down to WDW and Florida jump-started them this year or not (considering when we got home, we still had a good couple months of winter left before it finally warmed up).

Anyways, I hope your October trip goes much better for you. :wave:

My family has really bad allergies also and is made worse by the Florida humidity. I've found that Clariton along with a prescription for Flonaze (sp?) works great for all of us. My husband and daughter get it the worse, very sick like a bad, bad, bad cold and these two medications combined really does the trick :wave:.

Don't know that we are up for tent camping, we haven't tried it recently. We have all the "stuff" but we are really hotel people by nature. I would love to think of myself as a tent camper thou, I just have to try it closer to home first in case I wimp out and run for the inside.

I tried the Flonase a few years ago and it gave me wicked headaches and a nose bleed. Sadly, Claritin and pretty much any over the counter allergy med makes me drowsy, even the non-drowsy ones. Some of them cause my sinus to drain into my ears and cause ear infections. The only thing that use to work was allergy shots twice a year - one set around March and one in the fall. The last couple of years, I have been just putting up with them. If they stay this bad in the fall, I might look into getting the shots again next year.

Pretty sad when you wait all winter for the nice weather to finally come around and then you can't enjoy it because you feel like crap EVERY day.

Oh I had not been camping in 20 plus years when we went in Feb. it was great especially at Disney.

I know allergies suck. With this weather being the way it is one day hot next cold I feel like crap most of the time. I take everything...
