Seasonal allergy symptoms symptoms and conditions

I am a 48 year old female. I have been on lisinopril for about 7 months. When I first started taking it, I experienced seasonal allergy symptoms. I considered allergy tests, etc., but decided to tough it out. The cough started and persists. I have had the symptoms and they have finally subsided. I went to a N.D., and am taking herbal supplements along with a decreased dose of the lisinopril to wean me from it all together. I have had a horrible rash on the side of my face and neck for months. If I go outside, with a hat, long sleeves and sunscreen, the rash gets itchy and my whole face feels like prickly heat. I am an outdoors person. Today is the first day I haven't taken my decreased dose and I don't feel very good. I hope this is the right thing to do.

Singulair has been my personal savior. I was prescribed Singulair for Reactive Airway, asthma caused by exposure to certain everyday chemicals, such as perfume. My doctor also said Singulair would help my seasonal allergy symptoms - stuffy nose, itchy eyes, etc. In two years, I have not had a single asthma attack and no longer need Sudafed or any antihistamine. I can mow our lawn with no watery, itch eyes and no sneezing. As for side effects, I have noticed my teeth are more sensitive to cold. I have heard some people say they gain weight after starting Singulair, however, I have lost weight. I feel so good I think I have been exercising more. At any rate I'm down about 17 lbs. in 24 months. I'm sorry some people are unable to tolerate Singulair, but this medicine has changed my life.
