Worth The Pain And Agony

Ever since we moved to Georgia 6 1/2 yrs. ago, I've suffered from horrible nasal allergies that come and go with the seasons. They hit especially hard in the springtime and it gets to the point where I can't breathe through my nose.  I am fine all day long, generally, but about an hour before I go to bed, I can feel the pressure starting to build in my nose and before long, I'm completely stopped up. In a moment of complete desperation, I, usually, put a couple of shots of nasal spray in each nostril just so I can sleep.  I have even tried Saline Nasal Mist and various prescription nasal sprays, but nothing has really done the trick. It's so frustrating!

Well, the other day I was in Wal-Mart and came across a nasal spray that caught my attention. I picked up the box, read a quick description of it, and decided it was worth a try. Maybe, just maybe, this could be the answer to my troubles...

So, on Friday night, the day of my purchase, I followed the directions and gave two swift squirts into each nostril. Oh, my word...I, literally, doubled over in PAIN!  The burning sensation I had in my nose was like my sinuses had been lit on fire...no exaggeration! It hurt like the dickens! When I was able to wipe away the tears that had formed in my eyes, I turned the bottle around to see what the main ingredients was...Capsicum Ammun, which is derived from hot chili peppers. That explained the intense burning!  In fact, it's the same ingredient used in pepper spray!  Ring a bell?  Click here if you'd like to learn more.

Needless to say, after a minute or two, my nose cleared completely up and I could breathe easily, again. Since that time, I've used it daily and have not had the first problem with nasal congestion.  So, even though it burns like CRAZY, I am definitely a believer!  I feel like a new woman! Hmm...wonder if it would cure our snoring dacschund?  Oh, Maddie...
