People born there must just be immune to allergies. I can’t even fathom what would happen to my nose if that’s how it was.

I wasn't born here, I'm from the Midwest Illinois Suburbs. I had no idea that I had serious allergy issues... Until we moved here! I sometimes wonder if I'd be able to handle the snowy weather better there now as opposed to allergy hell season...

that’s so interesting bc i was the opposite. terrible, terrible midwest allergies growing up. to the point where i couldn’t go outside without losing my vision to the pollen. but now living in that in GA? no allergies at all. it’s wild tbh

Hmmm. Must be different kinds of pollen maybe that triggers our sinuses? Southern pollen gets to my sinuses and not yours while Midwest pollen gets to your sinuses and not mine. Weird.
