Australia: Melbourne, Dandenongs, Queensland
My Dream turned into my worst nightmare. Moved from Suburban Melbourne Australia to a 10 ac farm let in the foothills of the Dandenongs on the outskirts of Melbourne. Very high rainfall 40inches, may or may not have a summer so grasses never die back. Not much sun during winter. Seasonal creek (or stream) creates wet swampy area to rear of house.
Of course I am allergic to Mould, grasses and dust mites. I had basic grass allergies as a child, but these has gotten far worse over the last few years and now I am sensitive to a range of other things. Doctors want me to keep using nasal cortisone, but this provides no relief.
The house is a low allergy design house, floorboards no ducted heating etc. Because of the environmental factors my life has become very miserable with constant headaches and sinus problems. Interestingly holidays in Queensland (Australia) brings much relief with its warmth and different flora.
I have been trying to convince my family to move somewhere dry and warm so they I can regain some quality if life. I am only 35. — SKN, Australia
