I practically live on it, so do DH and the black Lab. We're in the Holy Land of Allergies.

Yeah, thats the thing. It does work well. But my body just dosent like it for some reason. Or i should say..my legs dont. Thats the only symptom i notice though..its weird...

I know what you mean redhen. I can't take anything with antihistimines in it because I get totally the opposite effect. DH literally has to pluck my fingernails one by one from the ceiling if I have to take any meds like that. The only one that I can and do take in an allergy emergency is Dimetapp liquid. That one puts me to sleep every time. No pills though. Those put me on the ceiling.

I wasn't too sure what that meant, but wasn't going to say a word since it might be haggis related.....

I am in the same coop as you. Most things aggravate it and then you can't even control it with the norm (hot bath).

Just out of curiosity how many of you have autoimmune disease like thyroid disease?
