Anyone know anything about allergy triggers? I woke up this morning with an awful pounding sinus headache. Geez, it's 40 degrees outside, nothing is blooming, could it be something I ate? I hate this, I couldn't make it to this week's Cindy training ride.:mad: :mad: :mad:

Poor bunkie!
For what it's worth, there are a lot of trees blooming & leafing right now [uh, appologies to those of you still in the throes of winter ... talk among yourselves ... :D]
For one thing, I think the Accacias are blooming - that's a pretty common tree in our parts, with bright yellow blooms. My husband is really allergic to that, it's so delightful when he starts sneezing uncontrollably when he's driving down the highway. :eek:
I've been pretty snurky lately myself, I think I'm starting to come down with allergies, yech.

Jo -
So how was the Cindy ride? It went across the Dumbarton today didn't it? Guess I'll tough it up and go out tomorrow - Tylenol sinus works OK, takes the pounding down to a light throb! :(
Better use the 68 oz tank in my hydration pack - that stuff drys me up.

I feel your pain on the allergies... even in the winter the dust really gets to me.
Clairitin OTC non-drowsy is awesome!! It used to be available only by perscription, but now you can get it OTC (hence the name). It competely dries up your sinuses, but there is absolutely no drowsiness. I use it when i have an exam/theater/race and can't fall asleep, and zyrtec (since it's covered by insurance and makes you drowsy) all the other days. :)
hope you feel better! at least it's above 30 in Cali (lucky!) ;)
