A member asked:

Can sinus problems or allergies interfere with quality of ones alertness or mental functions?i often feel v.sick , i get them regularly, is it just me?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: It is not just you, a number of allergy sufferers are unable to concentrate ( i call it allergy haze) secondary to nasal congestion and other symptoms with allergies. See an allergist and get them under control.
