I often get sneezing fits after I eat, especially if it's early in the morning. For about 4 minutes straight, I sneeze intensely over and over. There's no way to stop. I've tried taking these Claritin tablets and using this Flonase nasal spray to stop it, but it won't stop.

Has anyone else here had the same problem? Did you find a solution?

Sometimes when I eat jalapenos on pizza, it makes me sneeze with a full mouth. Guess I must breathe in the fumes as I'm taking a bite. Only answer I have is don't do that.

I sneeze when stand in front of the kitchen sink and turn on the faucet. Every time!

Also there is a genetic thing some people have. Bright lights make them sneeze. I don't know why. I know there is a nerve that runs under the upper lip to the noze. If you stimulate that nerve you will sneeze. I have to suppress it when I go to the dentist and they clean my top front teeth. It drives me crazy!

You're allergic to doing the dishes!

Bright light doesn't make me sneeze, but if I have a sneeze that just won't come out, bright light ( sometimes only the sun) will usually help me sneeze.

Plucking a hair or squeezing a pimple in that lip/nose area usually gets me.

If we decide to go to dinner and you ask me "what would you like for dinner"? Do not expect pizza as an answer.

If I get a random sneezing fit usually slowly working my way over to the kitchen - sneeze, step, sneeze, step, sneeze, step - and then reach for a Kleenex they will stop.

I always seem to sneeze if I look too close to the sun or the glare off a road or sidewalk gets in my eyes.

I'm pretty sure I've been embarrassed a few times eating while having a cold. Nothing worse than an uncontrollable sneeze with a mouth full of food!

But the worse are those freak sneezes after getting over a bronchitis or lung infection. Out of nowhere, huge amount of snot out the mouth. The body doesn't bother to check with my brain and see if I'm in an acceptable situation for that.

Have to play it off. Catch it with the hand and wipe it off somewhere when no one is looking! Had one recently while hitting up the local liquor store. Not going to wipe that crap on my clothes. Someone was in for a surprise if they bought that 12-pack stack on sale that I was walking by as it happened. :facepalm:

I never heard of sneezing fits after a person eats. Try taking some Benadryl before you eat. It can't hurt to try.

The only time I sneeze a lot is when dealing with super hot pepper powder or pepper flakes. And that's before I eat.

could also be an alien implant...embedded in your nasal cavity.
considering in the past how i have accurately documented your alien abductions thru astute interpretations of your various dreams...its logical to assume...you have an implant.

sometimes tho..
a sneeze is just a sneeze.

Try Zyrtec sp? For a week. I was doing the claratin and Flonase and it was not working

Statred with zyrtec alone and it started working within a week. Have been taking them since.

Suppositories do not work when you are in an elevator they ricochet all over the place when you sneeze and it pisses the people in front of you off got 5 out of 5 people last time I tried it
