What allergy meds do you take? I also have a dust mite allergy.

Zyrtec and Flo-nase works well for me, but everyone's biochemistry is different. I recommend getting an allergy panel if you have access to affordable healthcare. Otherwise, try every OTC allergy med one at a time.

Here is a wild theory: I have cats and I'm not directly allergic to them, but I found that brushing them helps improve dust mite allergies because they shed less and leave fewer surfaces for dust mites to cling to.

I’ve done an allergy panel. That’s how I know I have the allergy. Also allergic to a type of mold, and willow trees. Sadly, I can’t do the flonase because of very bad psychiatric reaction to steroids. I’ll have to try others. Right now I’m doing 24hr Claritin.

That's a shame that you can't use Flonase. Any luck with antihistamine nose sprays?

Haven’t tried any yet. Unless you’re taking about saline misting sprays.
