I have never heard of allergy meds helping the cough of Red Tide, nor the teary eyes.How long does it usually last?Some friends are comin' down Friday for her 40th.
Maybe I should tell her to bring allergy meds just in case.
I have been "jacked up" (thanks jdarg) on Zyrtec since I arrived, taking it am and pm. Doesn't help a bit. It seems a bit less bothersome over here today, but no beach for me today.
Thanks everybody. 
All this time I was thinking it was the pine trees.

This is the hottest accessory for the health conscious SOWAL lady right now.
My group yesterday said alcohol was the antidote.
Worth a shot (pudding OR Jell-o)
I sucked on the ol' inhaler before kickball, and I think it helped some.
Hairball!
I miss y'all already. Wanna come watch the leaves change up here? (Better hurry; I hear it's only going to last for a couple of hours this year.)
We feel like crap. Red tide is really getting us down. It's crazy to be at the beach and not go to the beach. We are both coughing like crazy and have sore throats -- D has a headache, too. Last night at dinner I had a sneezing attack and sneezed about 20 times in a row. Everyone was saying "God bless you," but I was so embarrassed and apologetic.
Our dog isn't sneezing or coughing, but we can tell she doesn't feel well (I assume from the red tide). When she doesn't feel well, she gets into her crate even when we're home. The vet told us not to take her to the beach because she might get sick from sniffing or eating some dead creature on the beach.

Have experienced MUCH WORSE Red Tide here in Seagrove in past years than what is here right now....although there is definitely a lot of coughing everywhere.... took a long walk this morning all around Seagrove and down to the beach and coughed just a little....I imagine anyone staying out on the beach for a long time would be coughing quite a bit more! Hope something will clear it out soon!
