Allergies kicking in good

1 May 2008 by Two Crazy Dogs

It has been a month since I starting my sneezes.  I noticed the worse is when I have perfume on.  There are only two fragrances I use, i.e. Escape and Eternity both from Calvin Klien.  I started using these two fragrances back when I was in M’sia, if I’m not mistaken 1994 with no problems at all.  Just love the smell of it. 

I even bought them brand new last year since I ran out.  Thought these two bottles will last me till end of this year but at the rate I’m going now, it will last me a few years!!  I totally cut off putting on any perfume starting today.  I noticed each time I get a whif of the perfume I will be sneezing my guts out.  Not just mine, it’s also from others - whoever walked past me or come close to me with their perfume, I will start to sneeze. 

Then, my eyes are itching on and off.   Not that bad.  They are not watering yet.  However, my nose is the one that is driving me up the wall.  It is itching and I have been blowing it almost every 30 minutes, if not I will be rubbing it till it becomes so red and getting sore at the same time. 

I’m experimenting if I have all these symptoms when I’m in Vegas.  My coworkers told me folks who have allergies in Minnesota usually have none when they are in drier climate like Vegas or Arizona.  That was what DB said, too.  He said “Time to move out of here.”  Yeah, I don’t know how many times he has said that. 

As of now, my nose is itching.  I do not smell any perfume fragrance, but my own deodorant, too.  Die, man.  Have to get those unscented ones, I think.   And the funny thing is when I’m out walking the boys, I still sneeze but not as much as when I’m indoors.  Obviously I’m allergic to perfumes and it’s a little better when I’m outside, the fragrance is not so strong then.

If I’m really allergic to perfumes I will have to sell them.   Simmie said sell them on eBay.  Mhmm, that’s a good idea.  Now I hope I’m not allergic to dog dander!!!  If I am, PLEASE KILL ME NOW!!

    My allergies can be terrible this time of year. Usually changing the air filters for the A/C is what gets me. I survived last week. *knocks on wood*

    Where did you buy the perfume?

    When I was in Langkawi one day and bought some Absolute Vodka. It didn’t taste like anything I remember. Later, I realized that despite the pretty real looking packaging, the stuff I bought wasn’t the deal deal.

    Anyway, just keep taking vit C/juice. Take good care of yourself before the trip.
