Remember when I had that horrible bronchial/sinus thing in April? It went on for several weeks and the thick sinus crud was relentless. After dealing with that stuff going down the back of my throat and then causing me to cough and cough for weeks, I finally took the black seed oil and it knocked it out in about 2-3 days. I took 2 caps in the morning and again in the PM.
Another remedy that works for me is one that a naturopathic doc told me to do years ago. N-A-C taken with Black Elderberry at the same time. I take the Jarrow N-A-C Sustain (600 mg slow release caplets) with Gaia Black Elderberry capsules. I take them during allergy season, which for me is this time of year until the weather gets over 100° and stuff stops blooming (usually until about mid-June) and then I take it again in the fall, about August to November. Not a cure, but it definitely helps, as I always discover when I decide I don't need to take it this year...!
They sound very helpful and I appreciate the information. I had to take an allergy pill yesterday, in spite of the fact that it was raining. The rain usually keeps the pollen down but it didn’t yesterday. The allergy pills only work 1-2 days in a row and then they stop working until I take another break. It’s raining again today and I didn’t wake up sneezing in the middle of the night. Could be the rain, could be day 2 of a low dose of DMSO. Too soon to say.
