Well I think I need to cave and spend the cash to go back to the docs. I don't want another night where I'm woken up with shortness of breath and wheezing. I did get to fall asleep looking like a ninja though, so that was pretty cool.

I would use three drops of cynthia foster eyebright tincture in an eyecup of water, one for each eye, for a minute or so several times a day.

Do you have asthma? Dust allergies agitate.

Happened to me when we bought our house. Previous owner had a cat.
Cats and dogs are basically filthy creatures, and it wont matter if you clean carpets or soft furnishings, only time will get rid of it. Cat and dog filth, from my own research, has a half-life of about 10 years - meaning if you wait 20 years, you'll feel much better.
To avoid it in the future, I suggest spending the rest of your days educating the odd-breed of people who let filthy animals wonder around their houses.
I have 18 years of sneezing left.

I moved into my apartment 2 months ago. The building is old, and I noticed one night I had a hard time breath when I was sleeping. I was wondering if it was the apartment or not but it's been only that on incident in the 2 months I lived here. I also had a flu a month ago, but I don't think it's apartment related.

Also, there was a weird gas smell last night, and my f'n super couldn't figure out what it was. All he said was to open the windows. I had to call Con Edison, and there was a gas leak in the apartment. They had to shut the gas off, but the smell didn't go away.

I really thought I had AIDS because uberdesigner kept saying I might have it. Did a blood test in January, and I was cleared.

Ask Dr. Obama, he knows everything. And, even if he feeds you a line of bullshit, you'll believe him.

have you tried a saline sinus rinse? disgusting, but it really works...most people wouldn't need allergy meds if they used it.

Does the saline rinse stop a runaway immune system reaction? Otherwise, it just treats the symptoms.
5timuli - go to home depot or something and buy a mold test kit. They're fairly cheap - and if you're getting mold somewhere in your place, it'll start growing on the tester.
- don't know, but it can help get rid of a sinus infection without antibiotics.sputnik2

UPDATE!!! NEENAWNEENAW!!!
Cleaned the fan tonight. The regular dust that was on it changed from, well, dust colored to a thick black greasy fluff over the past two weeks. I cleaned the parts of the fan with my bare hands in hot water and now the ends of my fingers are peeling.
