I read in the newspaper that STINGING NETTLE is supposed to be helpful for allergies.
Anyone tried this.
Good luck and God Bless
Hugs
P.S. I'll be taking a rest break for the rest of this week. Don't know when I'll post again so Y'All take care
(Osteoarthritis in my back really hurts and I hope to see the Pain Doctor soon for 2nd set of injections, not so fun right now)
This is a good forum

Thanks Sherry really sweet of you. I was able to get a doctor appointment today and he thinks I have a torn disk.
The proccedure is he will give me a local and then 4 injections and then ask me to walk and if I still have pain it's a torn disk that all I know for now. I just hope I can keep calm enough so my asthma will not flair that'll be the hard part!
((Hugs)) to everyone it's my Birthday
Take care Y'all

Hi, I have been drinking stinging nettle for years. It tastes yummy as hot or cold tea and is excellent for inflammation and alllergies. I would say check a herb book out of the library and read up on it. I usually drink it for 3 months and then stop for a while and then come back to it, I do not believe in ingesting any herb without pause
