Hello, I have 2 cats. Recently, I have been blowing my nose, my eyes sting and I sneeze. Can I become allergic from one day to the next?

I have seasonal allergies, but usually it is from August to October.

Hello Ma'am,

Yes, it's possible, though rather rare.

Could it also be that you've been digging out clothes you wore this summer, or that your home ventilation could be "pushing" pollen at you (air exchanger filters, for example)?

I'd look into that too, just to be sure.

Happy day,

Alexander

I worked as a pharmacist in the emergency department of the Granby Hospital for 6 years before dedicating myself to Ask your Pharmacist. I completed my education in telehealth at Jefferson University in Philadelphia and are recently completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Health Informatics at Université de Sherbrooke.
