Has anyone noticed an increase in seasonal allergy symptoms during February so far ?

Tree Pollen seems early this year
yes not sure if it’s all the damp air and moulds from so much rain?
Oh I thought it was just me. I find the Kleenex pollen app/site useful as it can get very localised and tells you specifically which kind of tree/grass/weed pollen is highest. Helps me to get an idea of what I might be reacting to.
Thanks I'd not come across that website. I seem to wake up with a slightly tight chest on sunny days. Can't wait 'till the birch season - we are surrounded by birch trees!! 🤣
I did wonder why I am getting breathless, didn’t connect it to early pollen.
Here in Europe nothing yet, but it's colder than in the UK in the winter. Climate change is no joke.
early pollen about in douth
My eyes have been itchy last couple of days. Saw some daffodils out so figured Spring has arrived,down south, already.
My Daffodils are in full bloom and I have been sneezing for weeks. I needed a steroid nasal spray then oral steroids for persistent cough.
Yesterday I had a tooth extracted and have taken a localised reaction. This includes urticaria and swelling. My mouth has dry on one side and I look like a Quasimodo that had a stroke.
I don’t normally have allergies.
same here, itchy eyes as in full hayfever season. So frustrating
I've been having a sore dry throat and tight chest
Yes! My nose is completely blocked!! And short of breath
Certainly since really the beginning of the year I’ve been more bunged up nasally and coughing more than usual.
i have been itching for the last week though i never itched before. strange
I know so many people who have had this terrible cold with coughing and breathlessness for weeks at a time, me included. I have never known my asthma to be as bad and the same with an elderly friend. Also yesterday I met two people who had had this bug, not diagnosed asthmatics but have been given inhalers and steroids to assist their breathing. I didn’t even consider it being pollen related but will have a look to see if the levels are up, dubious as I’m in the North of Scotland 😆
yes my I am coughing much much more
I’m coughing more (cough-variant asthma), waking up with streaming nose and red, sore eyes. Not affected by pollen much - dust mite is my usual issue. Also, digestive tract issues worse (coeliac)
