I used to get gushing nosebleeds just like the anime charas. Sometimes they would not stop for over an hour. Felt like i needed a blood transfusion afterwards. My asthma inhaler set it off too so it was like either you can breathe or your nosebleeds so you breath through your mouth till it stops! I got my nose cauterised a few times. They just stick a little stick with some chemicals in your nose for a few seconds and kinda kill the main veins. It took a few times but now i rarely get nosebleeds anymore.
With allergies i have the 3 big ones: asthma, hayfever (pollen etc), eczema. When one comes they all come. ¬_¬
Japshin - I think one time you said you had eczema. There is a good ointment called pro-topic which does not thin your skin. I use it in combination with chinese herbal medicine. I even got some accupuncture for it and lay like a voodoo doll for about an hour!
I got an allergy test once and practically everything i had a reaction with. T_T It really sucks since i can't eat alot of foods and we shots are banned here. How do the shots work? Is it just for things like pollen or can you get it for food allergies too? How often do you need them and how effective do you find them?
