I'm going to have to at least try them - I'm taking four meds a day (Zyrtec, Singular, Flonase, and some medicated eye drops) and I'm still incredibly miserable.

I've always had allergies of some sort, but they just have been progressively gotten worse and worse since I moved from OK to VA. Maybe because everything is so dry there that there isn't much pollen and grass around where as here, it's everywhere.
