Is hay-fever a global thing, or something we only suffer from in Britain?


Is hay-fever a global thing, or something we only suffer from in Britain?

It's everywhere! I suffered really bad in Yellowstone and Ireland. Not as bad in Southern California but it's still here!

Unfortunately, it is pretty much global. Lots of sufferers in North America (maybe we inherited it from you?)

no

It's a global thing. I live in the states and it's quite common.

No.. it is a global thing even though in many places they do not know it as hay-fever and just call lit allergy or nothing at all... as in Indo China, China, and elsewhere in that area to include Africa.

Totally global... my hayfever hits literally Aug 15th every year.
I live in Southern Ontario Canada and it is a nasty time for most people with allergies. I went to Tampa Florida one time in June and my allergies just about did me in... that was a new time for me.

Its a global thing.

its global, however in britian, if unchecked it can be fatal.

here too...I have it.

we americans can also get hay fever! except its not a happy thing

TRUST me...it's global....I've had hay fever since I was a babe, and my best friend has troubles with it in Africa...I'd be, though, that if you chose to live in an arctic climate that the troubles would disappear. "They Say" that there's less problems in desert areas, but I had just as much trouble while I toured teh Southwest US a few years back.

I suffer really bad from hayfever but I had been ok until two weeks ago I went to Benidorm and it was one of the worst bouts of hayfever I had. I had to get Loratadine form the chemist. So no it's not just here!

Definately a global thing. I live here in the UK, but moved to Canada for a bit, and my hayfever remained the same. Although I have heard that your hayfever gets a lot better when you go to the coast. Hope this helps =)

Hay-Fever is in Michigan

It is definitely a global pain in the neck. I am British and my husband is South African, he suffers with it terribly and has done since childhood. It happens to people who are surrounded by long grass and pollen... where-ever that grows, you get people with hayfever!
