Beer & hayfever.

[Stat Brother]

Is there something in this, or just one of those things.

My hayfever this year has, so far, been minimal, to the point of non-existant.
But other circumstances have also resulted in minimal beer, this summer, certainly a lot less than ever before.

Now I've just settled down and enjoyed a pint of Speckled Hen.
That is until pretty much the last mouth full as that has coincided with a large hayfever reaction. I can bearly see the keyboard (good spelling excuse).

Has, by chance, one set off the other?

No chance, beer cures everything.

Maybe. I've had quite a heavy few weeks on the beer and it has coincided with my worst bout of hayfever this century.

I've noticed the same thing with caffeine, that makes my hayfever worse, but without it i'd be asleep.

I tend to find that drinking water helps to keep it more at bay. I take tablets but when I'm doing sport or something (like today), I find that it effects me much more

yes i am experiencing similar.

had plenty of cider last night, and my hayfever today is the worst its ever been. i've been drinking pretty constantly for a good month or two now, and my hayfever is worse this year than ever before.

I think it's MUCH more likely that you're allergic to something like DIY or gardening. I know I am. At the first mention of something like 'paintbrush' I come over all faint and have to sit down with some beer and watch the cricket.

Prob not as my hayfever wich normaly starts at the end of may did not arrive until sunday,just late flowering trees i reckon

I've got it bad this year and my drinking is lower than usual. I never used to get hayfever at all, so this is a right pain in the arse. How long is hayfever season?

 

[happypig]

Mine has not been as bad this year and I have drastically reduced my alcohol consumption (I used to swill down a bottle of red wine every night and a few pints on a tuesday, now I just have a few beers on a Tuesday and nothing else). SWMBO has left a dreaded "please mow the lawn note" for me, so we'll see how it is after that.

Sadly this is true for some people and infact my quack advised me to lay off the beer during hayfever season - drinking cider seems much better

Depends on what your allergic to. I get it from the middle of May until the end of June (6 weeks) however one of my mates has it from April right through to August.

 

[The Large One]

Thankfully I don't get hay fever.

But I do drink a lot of beer.

 

[Father Jack]

the hayfever season has been since early June for me but since the weekend i have been unable to breathe through my nose. Pollen is worse in the evening when most of us are more likely to drink. I think that explains it.

 

[countrygull]

It's true, for some people, myself included, beer can impact on the sinuses. My advice: drink your way through it.

Spent 2 hours mowing the lawn and barely a sniffle, maybe there is something in it....
