So this is the time of year a lot of people get seasonal allergies (usually it's Spring), because of all the pollen and other natural things going around.
My allergies flare up every time this year, my doctor did a few tests back in 2009 to try and narrow down what it could be. Originally we thought it to be the type of lights used in our schools, but that was dismissed when I finished high school and was no longer around the lights. After some research, my doctor stated that I was allergic to 'Spring'.
Whatever in Spring I am allergic to, it makes my eyes and nose all itchy (more so my eyes), my eyes also get bloodshot and have big black rings. It's either allergies or I'm secretly being drugged.
I'm also allergic to something called Cefaclor, it's branded as Ceclor and a few other things. Apparently when I was young, I was introduced to it and I my skin became red in a bunch of places.
What kind of things are you people allergic to?

Starting this previous Monday, my eyes have not been able to stop watering. It makes soldering at work a real pain in the ass, not being able to see without wiping my eyes down every other minute.

I'm allergic to cats. It's horrible. I can't be around them or my eyes to to get all puffy and one time they were swollen shut. I have trouble breathing.
Sometimes the I have the Spring allergies, but it doesn't affect me as hard as most people I know.
I'm not quite sure what I'm allergic to, but it feels like I'm allergic to everything. I haven't had an allergy test done since I was really young, but things are always worse in Spring. The past two weeks I've been taking a lot of allergy medicines just to get through the days, my eyes are watery, I'm congested and feel like shit.
To make matters worse I have allergic rhinitis, so my nose is always congested and unless I'm taking some kind of allergy medicine to deal with it, I have a lot of trouble sleeping. I can't breathe out of my nose, I wake up often in the middle of the night when it's really bad and generally have a hard time getting a good night's sleep. In the past I used nasal decongestant sprays like Otrivin, but they're really addictive (in the sense that I always want to breathe that well out of my nose) and overuse of nasal decongestant spray can really damage the nasal passages (and withdrawal is a bitch for an allergy sufferer). I was prescribed a corticosteroid nasal spray last summer and that helped a little, but in the months since then things are as bad as they used to be.
Allergies suck.

I am allergic to cats. That sucks, since I take care of a friends dog sometimes, and they have cats.
I am allergic to Pollen. Ya, that sucks too, for obvious reasons I would hope.
And I am allergic to Penicillin. Again, for obvious reasons I would hope you could see why that sucks, but for those of you who don't. I could die if I have it again, in a big enough dose.

You shoot laser beams out of your eyes. No wonder they're continuously watering.
As for myself, as far as I am aware, I'm not allergic to anything. Guess that makes this post the most boring one yet?
Here in my state, the amount of pollen is almost unbearable. I've heard from a lot of people who move to here that they immediately noticed some severe allergies in the spring time.
