Conquering your
allergies, sinus and asthma problems can be a long, tedious and
sometimes scary journey. But many of you have made it! Even with
the best medicines and products available, allergies are rarely
completely eliminated (and we'd like to hear from those of you who
make that claim). But, you can get to a level of health that you
never knew was possible. Inspire fellow members with your success
stories. Tell us your journey; how bad it was when you started,
what you did about it, and how healthy you are now by comparison.

and a deviated septum...
