Still suffering at 32. I get a shot of Kenalog (Steroid injection) which keeps me 99% symptom free over the bad months.
My GP won't prescribe it to me so I just pop down to a "walk-in private doctors" and get it from them.
I understand the jabs in some people may cause short and long term side effects but for the quality of life it gives me its worth the risk.
How long do you find it lasts? I've seen reports of only 4-6 weeks, while others suggest than one a year is enough. My GP won't prescribe it to me so I just pop down to a "walk-in private doctors" and get it from them.

Some people have told me to try acupuncture..anyone tried it? Ive had it before but not specifically for havfever.
Yes I have had Acapuncture for the last few years just before the season started and then at various time during the pollen season and it has worked for me very well.My symptoms start normally at the beginning of March of sneezing with itchy eyes, at the worst part of the season I used to get Allergic asthma with running eyes,sneezing,runny nose and also feeling in a pretty bad mood with every thing.
Putting drops in when you feel the tingling must mean it is too late.
