Combating seasonal allergy symptoms

Seasonal allergies can be a real pain in the butt for me.

  • I have adapted my life as best as I can, but it’s still annoying.

Some medications seem to help somewhat, but they only mask the symptoms and don’t eliminate them. For the longest time, I thought that taking certain medications was my only way of relieving my symptoms. I didn’t consider certain things. My house could really use a good dusting. My HVAC air filters weren’t replaced nearly as often as they should have been. I also hadn’t ever had an air duct cleaning, and my HVAC unit had been installed five years ago. I was searching the internet one day for answers as to how I might further lessen the symptoms of my allergies when I came across a website that explained how important home cleanliness and your HVAC unit is to feeling relief from your allergies within your home. I strapped on a mask and decided to do some much-needed spring cleaning. I changed out the air filter for a fresh one as well. Finally, I called out an HVAC technician so that he could clean up my unit and the air ducts as well. The technician promised I would be feeling better soon, when I explained my motivation for calling him out. He also suggested that I invest in an air purification system to work in conjunction with my HVAC unit to make my air pure and clean. Fast forward a couple weeks after taking him up on the offer, and it’s amazing how much more comfortable it is for me at home!
