Has anyone else noticed their asthma and allergies being a whole lot worse this year as compared to others?  
 
I think I read somewhere that there is twice the amount of dust and pollen and other things in the air than usual.  
 
I've definitely noticed. After a one-week stint in the hospital with some allergy/asthma induced complications, I'd say this year is probably the worst I've ever experienced. Judging by the amount of other people in the hospital for the same thing, I'd say I'm not the only one.  
 
Any one else noticing any problems? Any ways you've found to cope with it? EEP!
