Hello
I was diagnosed with Allergic Rhinitis quite a few years back. This condition also runs in my family (maternal side). From my own experience, I can tell you that I have a lot of running and itching alternating with periods of stuffiness and hard, crusty chunks (sometimes green or red in color). Sometimes I get dizzy spells, an unwell feeling, headaches, pressure, sneezing, puffy/watery eyes, itchy-fiberglass-all-over-face feeling, etc.
Allegra is supposed to work wonders for this condition and is what my mother currently takes. My doctor prescribed Allegra for me just yesterday but I hav'nt started on it yet. It is also supposed to be one of the few allergy meds that work on pet-related allergies and being an animal lover, this is a good thing!.
Hope this helps some:)
