that's powerful stuff...do you dilute it with water/other oil?  
i know it has strong antimicrobial properties, and anti-inflammatory properties, latter which i guess helps with allergies.

	Broke out the nettie pot this afternoon for the first time in years.  Just getting over (I hope) a brutal sinus infection after 10 days on doxycycline.  Still some gunk that needs to be dealt with to avoid reinfection.
 We just had the worst time in years for tree pollen in NEO.  All the trees came into bloom at the same time this year.
 
 A Navage has just moved up the list of priorities.

 So I'll be over here snorting saline and all the aromastuff and flucotizone? and benadryl and sneezing.

	So when someone eats local honey - something I've been told is a cure-all for seasonal allergies - does it work instantaneously (as in, eating it now would help with spring allergies already in progress) or does it build cumulatively before it works and a resistance kicks in?
 And if so, how long?

 No, I don't have any of those anymore because they make me sneeze.  I think Sally makes me sneeze because she has been more affectionate lately I suppose because of the cold weather.  Oh well, I guess I'll learn to live with it.		 |  |

For me instead of itchy eyes and runny nose I just get tons of post nasal drip mucus so I can't sleep or even use a Cpap.  It sucks. 
 
 I get that in the spring. It gets so bad that some mornings I vomit up clear, foamy mucus that I've swallowed in my sleep, I even stopped drinking beer during the first couple weeks of baseball season in an attempt to eliminate all possible contributing factors, but thankfully that wasn't the cause. 		 |  |

	Everyday is allergy season for me because of all my food allergies. But there is something outside now that's making it really bad during my daily walks. For me instead of itchy eyes and runny nose I just get tons of post nasal drip mucus so I can't sleep or even use a Cpap. It sucks.

 Is there ragweed in Oregon?  Probably. . . .
 
 
 
 Oy,  and I have a bike ride today.
 
 
 Mine kick up every time the lawn is cut(which of course was Thursday afternoon, just in time to be half blind for the baseball playoffs). 		 |  |
