I have had complete nasal congestion for a year now non-stop. I have tried everything! Please help?!?
I have been to the doctor and they assure me that it is an allergy that will subside, but after a whole year of no breathing out of my nose I am losing hope. I have tried medications, nasal irrigations, and removing anything in my home that I could possibly be allergic to. I am out of ideas and would like to know if anyone has any advice they could give me, it would be greatly appreciated.

Wow, one whole year of congestion is not good. I don't know if I have the answer but you must start to think out of the box to get well. I hope the doctor is an ear, nose throat specialist.
Your body might be reacting to something in your environment that got past your five senses. Here are a few possible things that may affect a person.
1. The silver filling in your teeth are more mercury and could make you sick slowly over time.
2. Stray EMF in your home can make you sick.
3. Lead in your drinking water pipes hazard.
4. Mold hazard
5. Radon hazard
6. Lastly, please consider the results of "NASA's Clean Air Plant Study" that can improve your environment drastically.
"Common indoor plants may provide a valuable weapon in the fight against rising levels of indoor air pollution. Those plants in your office or home are not only decorative, but NASA scientists are finding them to be surprisingly useful in absorbing potentially harmful gases and cleaning the air inside modern buildings."
"NASA research has consistently shown that living, green and flowering plants can remove several toxic chemicals from the air in building interiors. You can use plants in your home or office to improve the quality of the air to make it a more pleasant place to live and work - where people feel better, perform better, any enjoy life more."

Five days try this home remedy will not hurt considering years of suffering the ailment.
1. determine to fast for 5 days. Fasting means lessen your food or take fruits only (apple) if you can. If not, lessen food intake.
2. take only PINEAPPLE JUICE 4 TIMES a day for 5 days
or as alternative
1. drink 4 glasses (160mm) of water after waking up,then breakfast after 45 minutes. do this for 30 days. if you feel good, do it lifetime.

it may sound like old wives tale but its a good indian remedy
lightly burn some cloves, they should be burned not charred and then inhale the smoke.
be careful coz the smell is very pungent, and it will singe your eyes
but its good
repeat at least twice a day

This could be serious. Go to a different doctor, like in a walk-in clinic.
