An allergist tested me for the 50 most common allergens and concluded I don't have allergies. When my primary doctor saw it his response was "There are way more than 50 things to be allergic to in the world." But nothing more ever came of it. I honestly think my biggest issue is that thing with the throat muscles getting tense and over-reactive.

I mentioned it to my doctor and she quickly said it was my statin drug causing it so she changed my meds. It isn't gone away but it is better. Enjoy your soup and game night at church. Sounds like fun!

Fro...First of all, so very glad it's not covid! From my personal experience, I suggest you talk to your doctor about allergies. I used to get sinusitis every January. Every darn January. Every year, I had a different doctor, who treated it. Finally I had a doctor for more than a year and she pieced it together. I'm allergic to a chemical that's in paint thinner, and that they use to treat carpet to make it stain resistant. Because of the buildings I work and live in, I was breathing that in during the cold months because all the vents were closed and the air was recycled. And I was never going outdoors and breathing fresh air. So if someone two floors below me was renovating, I was breathing it in and I'd get sick. A small dose (60mg) of Fexofenadine a day and I'm fine. FINE! It's glorious. Sorry if this is much more than you wanted to know, but I want to share in case your doctor can get to the bottom of this. Prevention is better than treatment.The Gal Herselfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02566779726191649848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395189056966562644.post-66057485341447472012022-03-24T15:17:18.411-04:002022-03-24T15:17:18.411-04:00I hope you are feeling better soon.

Thanks for the link to the mascara - I noticed Covergirl is on there several times, but not the kind I use. I will change the kind I use and see if that helps, since I've tolerated Covergirl in the past. Much appreciated.CountryDewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03243893531509380824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395189056966562644.post-39021914568768410382022-03-24T14:02:00.871-04:002022-03-24T14:02:00.871-04:00Praying you are soon on the mend from your coughin...Praying you are soon on the mend from your coughing/sinus issues. Allergies can be very aggravating. And it's pollen season here and probably will be there too, so hang on and hopefully you will be better soon. Your meals sound interesting and good. I've never made pierogies...not even too sure I've ever had them. They are not a "thing" here in Florida. I'm thinking one time years and years ago a lady in one of our churches was from PA. and brought them to a pot luck supper. That's all I can remember about it because it was different to me then too. I think I ate one and liked it, but can't remember anything else about it. LOL. I hope you have a fun night at the church soup and game night. Sounds like fun. Take care and have a wonderful weekend.Pamela M.

The throat massaging sounds like worth the try.<br />In spite of the rain, we've been busy with working in the yard (6 1/2 acres). It always needs something picked up, fixed, cut down, or fertilized. *lol* I love it though.<br />Have a blessed day! xxSparkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531515666554867421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395189056966562644.post-49851307777480073442022-03-24T09:36:05.630-04:002022-03-24T09:36:05.630-04:00Do you make your own pierogies?
