I have had similar situations with many of the other people on this website concerning allergies. I grew up in NY and had mild allergies and asthma (mostly exercised induced) when I was younger. I moved back to NY after being gone for almost 8 years. I was diagnosed with sinusitis in the fall of 2004 while I was living in Pennsylvania. After a few months of moving back to NY I began to get sinus infections every two months. Then I was diagnosed with chronic sinusitis.
I have seen numerous ENT doctors who all recommend surgery to remove the polyps from my nose. I would rather not have the surgery. I have been put on all types of allergy medication. After vacationing in a tropical area for an extended period of time, the polyps in my left nose completely disappeared. However, my right nostril is still filled with polyps.
My ENT and Allergist suggested that I leave NY because they believe that my sickness could be tied to my environment and/or they recommend allergy shots. What other areas would be a better place for me to live? Will I just develop new allergies to the new place after a few months? Any suggestions of advice would be appreciated. Thank you. — L.J., New York
From my experience, I recommend living in the dry climate, such as nevada, utah, or idaho. dust mites like humid areas. i currently live in europe, but i´m from the west. i have had problems everyday with allergies since i´ve been here.
I have been receiving shots for indoor allergies and have recently been sufferring from severe sinus headaches. I asked my allergist if I have developed outdoor allergies because my headaches occur after being outside. He said no. It has been 2 years since I have been tested for all allergies. Should I insist on be tested again for new allergies?
