[quote=Anonymous]I took her in the bathroom and ran the shower for quite a long time. The steam helped a bit, and eventually she went back to sleep, but I'd rather prevent these night wakenings. - We have already removed all feather/down products that might exacerbate the problem. - I considered a second dose of Zyrtec last night, but since the label says it's for runny noses, I thought that might be counterproductive. - She used a nasal steroid spray for the first six weeks of allergy season, but we discontinued use after the first major nosebleed. (She is prone to nosebleeds anyway, and we found last year that the nasal spray made them more frequent and copious.) Any other home remedy-type suggestions? Would a saline spray help? Preventively or as treatment? We did try a neti pot a couple of years ago, but she didn't like that. Thanks for your help.[/quote]
