My allergies are out of control !!

Hey y'all my sinuses are putting a whooping on me and my eating habits ! I'm trying best to stay hydrated more than anything and if I am able to eat get protein in ... Lately I feel like I live on black piping hot coffee and hot tea ... I have precaution allergy meds but they seem to work when they want too .... !!!! cause I'm not the type to run back for a deflate when the band isn't the problem ... Any advice ??

I have Fluid removed when my allergies are bad because the sinus drainage tightens my band.

I suggest a slight unfill for now.

I didn't say it would damage your band. Drainage makes my band tighter & therefore I can't eat normally. Just wanted to clarify that. It is best to check with your doctor.

I use Musinex in liquid form. Seems to help with drainage most of the time.

Thanks so much for the info on sinus drainage and tightening of the band i have had a sinus infection and haven't been able to eat anything but soup. Now i know what's going on and can work on solving the problem
