Answer 1

something doesnt agree with you, i would go the the doctor and get checked out, you might need a antihistermine untill you get use to your new environment.

Answer 2

Definitely. (For all of the reasons and examples already described.)
However, I had the problem when I moved, and someone told me that I should try to find and buy honey that is made locally. Some people think that the pollen that the honey is made with (the same pollens that are causing the allergies) when ingested, will over a period of days, trick your body into believing that these new pollens are "normal", and your immune defenses will not be triggered.
I never tried it,(because I don't like honey) but it's interesting just the same.
Also, consider the fact that it might not be the outside that's causing the allergies. Perhaps the new house/apartment has mold or dust mites?

Answer 3

Yes. Different areas have different concentrations of different allergens. The link below shows a list of common allergens. What is most likely happening is that something you are allergic to is in high concentration in the area which you are now living, whereas it was not nearly as common where you used to live.

So the most likely answer is that you were allergic in the first place, you didn't know it. However, there is such a thing as Adult-onset allergies, which basically says that you can develop allergies at any time in your life.

Answer 4

Oh, yes! When I lived in Philadelphia, I had one long sinus infection. It was muggy and humid and the pollution particles just stayed trapped in that heavy air and recirculated all the irritants that cause allergies.

Answer 5

The same happened to me when I moved from Rhode Island to Boston Maybe its the water thats all I can think of

Answer 6

Allergies may be developed due to certain reasons.....environment , food, water and etc.You need to find out what is triggering the symptoms.

Good luck.

Answer 7

Anything can trigger allergies at any time. I would suspect mould. Get your house checked, if you are developing sudden respiratory problems.

Answer 8

yes. see everyplace has different chemicals, air. so maybe u werent allergic to the chemicals of the place where u lived first, but now u are to the new chemicals!
the same thing happened to me too

Answer 9

yea different enviroments have different allergens. my brother never had any allergies at home but when we would go to the lake there was something he was allergic to there.

Answer 10

It is quite possibale that you might become allergic to the new conditions that you live in
