In 2010 January I decided to get a shingles shot, and my sister (mother of an autistic son) immediately said "now you've screwed up your immune system". I didn't think anything more about it until June.
I have never been allergic to pollen or outdoor plants. For years (age 59) I have enjoyed being out in the Michigan woods, hand cutting trails and maintaining them on my property. This time in June it was different. I had spent 2 hours trimming wild brush. When I came back in and looked in the mirror my face had swollen around my eyes, and I had trouble seeing. My forehead was red and itchy and would later produce dry patches of skin.
In a few weeks I had healed over, so I put a small test bit of pollen near my nose. My eyes were swollen a few hours later. I wasn't going to stop going Into the Woods. How could I get back to my old self?
I started by eating probiotic yogurt, drinking a lot of water, and intentionally contacting small amounts of pollen to build up my system. By the end of summer, I was much improved, almost no reaction to pollens. I won't really know until next year on the trails when I get in contact with cut plants.
