Recently I was severely attacked by Midgies and was so itchy I was scratching in my sleep going insane & infecting them. My Doc said I could have polaramine which as I'm sure you know is a antihistamine (sp?) so this will help with hayfever too.
HTH.
Also see if you can get a hold of a 'nettie pot' - it looks like a little teapot, but you fill it with warm water and you ip you head over onto one side, pour the water into one nostril and let it run right through so it comes out the other nostril. It will help flush all the pollen from your sinuses and ease some of the pain and congestion from it.
Polaramine is only ok before 3rd trimester... I was taking it up until about 27 weeks and haven't touched it since! It's a category C in 3rd so I definitely wouldn't take it without checking with your doctor.
Good luck!!! I understand how crappy hayfever is!!!
FESS nasal spray n eye drops helped me a bit (not heaps but stopping the itching for a little bit!!)
