Christmas Poinsettia

How many people allergic to Christmas Poinsettias? Because I am. They send out pollen at Christmas time.

  1. It is hard, I have allergies all year long. Every tree I have issues and grass. I have an allergic reaction with Cholrpheniramine too. I cannot eat any green vegables.

    1. , yikes! I know that must be incredibly challenging for you!

      Do you feel like your allergies are well managed or is it a bit all over the place in regards to experiencing allergic reactions? Does your allergist have you on treatments that help?

    1. Hi, !

      I bet you're not the only member of this community that's allergic to the pollen from Christmas Poinsettias! And, here's an interesting fact -- if you're allergic to latex, you may also be allergic to Poinsettias! I thought you might find this article interesting, even if it's not quite what you were asking about -- https://allergies.net/living/latex-poinsettias. And, I hope you are able to enjoy the break from Poinsettias; at least until next Christmas season!
