As if my tree allergies weren't bad enough already, they're saying that they'll be worse tomorrow due to today's wind w/o rain. AND THEN grass is starting soon, to which I'm also deathly allergic.

I swear, if I ever get a house, the first thing I'm doing is covering the lawn over with rocks, and then I'm chopping down and burning the stumps of any surrounding pine, linden, or mimosa trees, and lilac bushes.

Have you ever tried raw local honey? It's pretty good, and since it's so dry here allergies are usually much less severe, but it has helped my older sister who has severe asthma that is set off by allergies and refuses anything that involves needles including allergy shots, even though we had a mulberry tree right next door growing up.

FWIW? I see that, but I'm not sure I know what it means. Is it "For What It's Worth"?

[livejournal.com profile] rumorofrain gave me a bit of raw local honey - is it supposed to work b/c you're putting the pollen into your system or something? Got any links about how/why it works?

You're correct on FWIW - for what it's worth.

Sorry about taking so long to respond. I can't find the links in my mess of too many bookmarks, but will post them hen I find them.

That's about it. The pollen enters your body in a way that it can't respond to and it eventually realizes that it's not a harmful substance.

I have no proof, and don't think there is any available. Just anecdotal evidence.
