Calling all Dry Vasomotor rhinitis people

I wanted to make this post because I struggle with congestion but it’s DRY. No runny nose, no postnasal drip. Just super dry and stuffy. Hard to breathe.

I do have seasonal allergies, but I’ve noticed my sleep and breathing get worse consistently every winter and I live in a very cold Wisconsin climate, so I am wondering if this is my biggest problem. When I went to San Francisco for a week my nose was runny for the first time in ages. I loved it. I could finally breathe.

Things that make it worse:

1) Flonase

2) azelastine

3) astepro

Things that make it better (marginally)

1) saline spray

2) XClear or xylitol spray

3) Maybe ponaris

I’m struggling to breathe so much I don’t know what to do! Anyone have a similar experience and found anything that helped?
