Answer 1

Absolutely! Allergies can make you very sleepy. First, you should check with your physician to make sure all of this fatigue is actually allergy related and not something else. What I have found that works well for me is taking over-the-counter Claritin (plain ... NOT Claritin-D) on the days I have allergies really bad. My allergies and my fatigue usually clear up in a few hours. Check with your pharmacist to see if Claritin is right for you (based on medical history, drug interactions (very few with Claritin), age, etc...).

Answer 2

Hey. Not sure but it kinda sounds like u could have mono?? Im tired alot of the time too, and I sleep alot but I dont really have a fever. If you do have mono, then you should really get help from a doctor so it doesnt spread and stuff. Especially if u are a highschool or college student. In the meanwhile, just take some aspirin to keep your fever down and rest. Take care!

Answer 3

Your immune system does most of its work when you sleep. Doctors recommend that people with allergies get ten hours of sleep a day. It could be that the allergies have just worn you down. Make sure you take vitamins. Sudafed or over the counter Claritin D will perk you up and get rid of quite a bit of allergy symptoms, alternatively, straight claritin should clear up most without the hype of an ephederine. You will feel better without the allergy symptoms, for sure.

Answer 4

Hay fever can keep you from sleeping well, so you would feel tired. When I had bad hay fever, I would wake up every 15 minutes all night long, so of course I was tired.

Answer 5

For everyones info those taking antihistamine may cause drowsiness. You may have taken antihistamine. and most people who has hay fever, feels sleepy because they also have cough flu and sometimes runny nose. choose a med suited for you and use an air purifier to minimise attack of hay fever.

Answer 6

You are feeling weak huh. There is a relation. But in "Fever", you won't mostly feel sleepy unless you take some medicine.

Take Care.

What causes hayfever?

Hayfever is one of the common conditions and is said to be hereditary. This health condition is caused by any of the following:
Grass pollens
Animal dander
Mold spores
Pollution

Grass and tree pollens are produced in summer and early in spring. Plants produce pollen in order to reproduce.

Symptoms of hayfever

Runny or Blocked noses
Sneezing
Itchy eyes
Itchy throat
The body's immune system recognizes the presence of these allergens and starts a reaction to prevent their invasion. In most people this is not a problem, but in some patients the immune system is overactive and identifies normally harmless particles as dangerous and start to produce an excessive reaction that actually causes inflammation. This is known as allergy and the substances causing it are known as allergens.

People who suffer from allergies seem to have a reduced resistance to respiratory infections, and have more severe symptoms when an infection occurs.

Allergies often cause lost work days, decreased work efficiency, poor school performance and a negative effect on the enjoyment of ones life.
