Early fall allergies in your area

What are common allergies for this time of year? My husband and I have been sneezing last few days. – submitted by Margaret, Sedona, AZ

Note from Lois (AllergyNurse): Ragweed, of course, tops the list as the #1 fall allegren worldwide. Mold from rotting leaves and hay, along with grass pollen still haning on from summer in some areas, stir the mix. Fall adds a special punch of tree pollen to the potpourri, and certain foods trigger fall allergies (see my August 6, 2010, post).

Besides ragweed, what is the most prominent fall allergen in your area right now?

I have asked a lot of doctors and nurses where the best place in the world would be to live if one had allergies. They say no place is better than another.

I do not believe them.

There has got to be some places that are better than other.

Maybe islands?

Could you help me without agreeing with them? — LPJ, Texas

Has anyone lived in a variety of places, and continued to experience allergy problems to some degree in all of them?

Have any of you discovered a place where your allergy symptoms completely went away and stayed away through the entire allergy season? When you returned to the climate where allergies were troublesome, did your allergy symptoms return as well?
