Do you know anyone who is literally allergic to the rain? No? Well, you do now! My name is Brandy, and I am severely allergic to the rain. Okay, I don't know that it's the rain itself that makes me feel like death warmed over, it's more likely the change in barometric pressure. Regardless, my nose is more accurate than any meteorologist I have ever seen.
At about 24 hours before a good rain, I become absolutely miserable.My nose drips like a hot water faucet. It's non-stop, and it's completely maddening. This then causes my nose to become red, raw and painful. Ouch!
If that wasn't bad enough, I also get severe sinus pressure and pain, as well as migraines. It's often bad enough that I can't even get a good nights sleep. I should be used to this, since my sinuses have given me trouble my entire life, but how does one truly get used to feeling like a pile of drippy manure?

I am glad the folks at Sudafed can have a sense of humor about a topic many don't find so amusing. If I can chuckle about my sinus issues, they seem just a wee bit more bearable!
I had a blast sketching my version of sinus pain and pressure. As you can see, it feels a lot like a sledgehammer pounding my poor head while my raw, red nose incessantly drips snot into a big box of tissues. Not pleasant. Not pleasant at all. But pretty darn accurate, nonetheless.
Once I submitted my photo and information, I was officially entered to win $5,000! It was so simple, too! Plus, I got a valuable Sudafed coupon just for taking the time to enter.
