Do y'all get itchy red eyes? Try clear eyes! No just kidding my eyes don't get itchy the skin around gets itchy from freaking allergies and then it tears up then you wipe the tear and it makes it worse then it gets itchier and tearier and amg brb /suicide.


Anyway, do y'all have any way of "combating" the symptom? I've been on allergy meds and all that shit and I still get the eye issues. I find that when I keep it moisturized it's a lot less likely to be irritated, but still that isn't 100%

I'm allergic to shellfish, pollen, dust, and cats. I used to be able to eat as much ha gau (shrimp dumplings) as I liked when I was little, but my allergy formed around the time I got into high school.

My reaction to these things is my body itches all over. My eyes puff up and water in addition to this when I'm exposed to a lot of pollen and dust. I've only experienced allergic symptoms around cats once in my lifetime -- there were 3 heavily furred cats in a closed space. I felt like I couldn't breathe.

Medication I have taken include some prescription thing my doctor gave me that proved to be ineffective, Claritin (also ineffective), Reactine, and now some all-natural thing my mom picked up. I'm afraid I've built up a tolerance for this stuff though... sad.gif
