I get POST NASAL DRIP!!! uggggh. It has caused so many problems. It makes your throat dry, irritated, and hard to eat certain, acidic fooRAB. I also get a sinus headache, and pain in all my teeth!! I thought my teeth were going to fall out last night!! Then I will get stinging in my eyes, and sneezing, itchy throat, and roof of my mouth. Runny nose, but most of the drip as I mentioned goes the wrong direction because my sinuses are so blocked! I do have Chronic Sinusitis (as seen on MRI) I haven't tried to treat it lately because it always comes back. For some reason lately, I have burning on my tongue. I don't know if it is because the pollen is so bad, or just a pre-menopausal symptom. i am 43 and think it may be "burning mouth syndrome".. I am always out side on a trail I take walks on, so I am sure this doesn't help! Hope this helps....Oh yea, and I am also highly sensitive to the smells of most products with a scent!! Laundry detergent, dryer sheets, perfume, household cleaners, you name it. It will give me a migraine! Stuff like febreeze, or any scented candle, drives me nuts. I have to use everything unscented, for laundry soaps, and stuff like that they sell it now unscented, and also cleaning supplies are going "green" so they don't have much of a scent. I love that they are coming out with this stuff to help people like me with this problem. It's a nightmare walking through a department store. Some places even spray their clothes with perfume. I can't even walk into that place that sounRAB like Marabercrorabe and Stitch......I wonder if anyone else has this problem????
 
I have this same allergy and it is called vasomotor rhinitis. Chemicals, perfume and all that stuff send me up the wall. I just came from the allergist's office and he has put me on TWO nasal sprays. My suggestion to you is to go to an allergist because he will be more schooled than the general man. My general man had me on one spray and it was the wrong one, so I have gone through Hell.

The nurse told me that this is a pretty common thing to have and she sees a lot of people with it.

It is also more common in females; aren't we lucky?
