You see I'm one of the unlucky few who sufferes from the rarer allergy to tree pollen. So I get my hatyfever at the first sight of the sun. Still it's gone away by the time the majority of sufferers who are affected by grass pollen suffer later in the year.
I'm thinking it must be worse this year, simply because I've moved away from the concrete jungle of Nottingham to the more leafy reclines of Peterborough.
Anyone else suffering?

Yup. Currently with tree pollen as you mention, and I'll be twice as back when the grass pollen kicks in.
I hate spring / summer. I have bad hayfever until the autumn.
Bad breathing, runny nose, sneezes, the works. Plus, if I'm unlucky, the whites of my eyes can swell so badly, they hang over my eyelids. It's a sharpish trip to the doctors when that happens....

Hmm, suddenly my own hayfever doesn't seem quite so bad.
Ever tried putting something fun up the nose when one has hayfever so bad that ones nose feels like it's gonna implode?

If it happens this year (which it no doubt will) I'll grab a photo and host it on imageshack. It's utterly repulsive. Big bloodshot bags of fluid. If I look left or right, it squishes in the corner, and can obscure my vision slightly.
I've had it for many years now, and anyone who doesn't suffer is lucky. The sneezing, the constantly active noses. I find the stinging eyes to be the worst, the skin around mine has been rubbed raw thanks to it recently starting up again.
EDIT: I recommend Zirtek Tablets, they do the biz.
For me my major symptom is unbearably itchy eyes, which go red like I'm heavily stoned :\
The closest I get to it are when my sinuses play up. It's not usually so bad during the summer but I get really bad colds when I get them.
