Is it "aggressiveness syndrome" or "fear syndrome" or "dumb syndrome"?

What people have now is definately allergies and their are not many drs. that can help here. Antihistamines would not help if its a virus! Why else is the hospital so busy with allergies and asthma when we have dust storms. Its good for people to ask if others are having the same problems and we can share knowledge.

Nothing to do with the dust etc, or the weather changing again or people back from vacation bringing viruses in etc.

It's deadly!

*ffing hell, go to a Doctor, 75% of Doha has the same. did it realy need a post on here?

feeling that my head was buried in the sand ...

After taking a shower still ...

Even with all the windows in the car closed, still no luck..

Drinking coffee, sneezing, nothing worked for me ...

.....either morning sickness (cold, cough) throat infection.

My daily dose of sweet panadol subsides all type of allergies....precautionery.

I feel the dry and humid climate play a major role for tossing our health issues up. Again under the extreme conditions on both sides (summer / winter) make our life more difficult on the health front.

The Dust is really causing hell for those of us with Asthma, take an antihistamine at night and it takes time for it to accumulate in your system before it becomes effective and I have been using rynacort and still my nose can run like a faucet. Its hell. I have an LG air cleaner that is very good HEPA filter, so I suspect today its dust in the air as my machine is doing double work. If you have to go outside best to wear a good mask that can filter the air. People think they have a cold when its really allergies, it makes you really tired as your body is fighting it. I think Dr. Thomas by the Mejalis rest. is a good ENT dr.

How many times have you seen an ill food handler in Doha?

When the guy on the butcher's counter is streaming with a cold, I steer clear, but I have no way of judging who's sick in the prep area.

It's obvious that people working in fast-food outlets, restaurants and supermarkets continue to work despite being ill.
