I've had a history of allergies, ranging anywhere from hives to runny nose and itchy eyes.

I usually take Allegra-D (I think it was 90mg twice a day). That ALWAYS helps my hives, but rarely does anything for my nose.

Lately my nose has been stuffy whenever I'm sitting or laying. Its almost fine while standing (maybe a little runny, but atleast I can breathe). Minutes after I sit down, my nose starts to get stuffy. If I stand up, it will clear up after a few minutes.

I bought some NasalCrom Allergy Relief nasal spray and it didn't seem to do much, then I later read online that it usually only helps runny nose.

I've been looking around online and I decided to try a saline nasal wash. That will help for a while and it really makes my nose clear while I'm standing. I just started it last night and I did it again today. I will keep doing it once or twice a day to see if it just needs some time to work effectively.

Has anyone else experienced this before...the stuffy nose only while sitting or laying? Its really annoying and can make it hard to sleep.

Any other suggestions on things to try?
