Use a spoon of honey instead of sugar or sugar sub in your coffee or cereal. It will take a season but if you do it regularly you will find that the hayfever will all but go away. If you don't believe it then try it for a couple years then quit and see what it does. Something about the pollen used by bees building a resistance for you. Two or three times a day will jump start it for you then just once a day or so.
.If you have a medical plan that covers the expense so much the better. I got shots in the late 60's/early 70's when I was still a kid and they didn't help much. Technology has changed so much that now they can dial right into the specific needs and produce a custom serum that kicks serious butt. I've been on the shots again for about 5 years now, and they've changed my life in the spring and fall, and let's face it... that's the best time to be out riding.

I do the local honey thing. I get it from a family owned meat market. I asked how local the honey was and the guy said his neighbor had bee hives in his backyard. That was about 1 mile from the grocery store. Pretty local.
Forget about the medicines. Find yourself an acupunturist. They can take care of allergies/hayfever/etc. in short order. I go to one regularly.

Go to an Ear,Nose and Throat doctor and get tested. It is a simple drawn blood test that they check for antibodies.
Then get on a treatment plan.
I had severe allergies for years before another medical issue resulted in me getting tested.
I do 3 self administered shots a week and a prescription anti histamine. My "quality of life" has improved dramaticly in the last year.
I had a doctor tell me I had been sick for so long, I didn't know what it was like to feel normal. He was absolutely right.
