“Anders, 52, moved 127 miles in order to avoid pollen – it helped not”
“”Now the Northern arctic Ocean””
“Anders and Amanda Tuvgren had enough.”
“They fled 127 miles, from Eskilstuna, sweden to Kiruna, in order to avoid pollenplågan.”
“But –” Anders is just as allergic here.”
“– I yearn for christmas, ” he says with a sigh.”
“this Year pollensäsong is expected to be the worst in many years. “
“The hot summer of last year has made that it is now formed extra very pollen. Even those who are not so sensitive learn the feel of it in years.”
“At Apoteket AB, sales of pollenallergimedicin increased by 33%. Pharmacy the Heart’s sales increased by 75 percent during February and march, reports Today’s Echo.”
“Right now, it is high levels of birch pollen in the south of Sweden and up to the southern coast of Norrland.”
“But not even the higher up you avoid it away.”
“In Kiruna, the birches have not yet ruled out, but the winds of birch pollen also hit.”
“Nowhere in Sweden do not have one pollenplågan – ask Anders and Amanda Tuvgren.”
“They are ”pollenflyktingar”.”
“Both of them have for many years been difficult to be allergic to basically all the pollen.”
“Ten months of the year they struggled with their pollen allergies.”
“They tried to stay in the coastal towns of Kristiansund and Stavanger in Norway, and in Rømø in Denmark.”
“It helped – so long as it’s not blowing inside the country.”
“Moved to avoid the pollen”
“three years ago they decided: They took the kids and their bags and moved from Eskilstuna, sweden to Kiruna, sweden.”
” We must do something – now. This goes no further, ” said Anders then to Aftonbladet.”
“Now it is the third spring in Norrbotten.”
“– It was not a big difference, ” says Anders, on the phone from Björkliden, where he works as a janitor now.”
“He sounds down in the dumps on the voice – and it is he, even if he still has the humour in the keep.”
“of course it was a little better this far north, but not so much.”
“– There will be a month later here, but since 26 march, I have been bad. I have been struggling on for now, but it is heavy. Now I’m on sick leave at half-time, ” he says.”
“two months ago, he was how refreshed at any time,” he says.”
” I was working from eight to 22 and then I went and trained. Woke up before the clock – and now I can barely… Well, damn, there is such a difference.”
” I live constantly with the parking brake in the, eight months of the year.”
“Amanda, however, has become much better after the move to Kiruna.”
“Absolutely, I feel great in the winter here,” she says.”
“Instead of starting with cortisone already in February, it took in the year to mid-april.”
“– And mugwort are not up here, so I avoid the problems in August, september, October. So maybe it’s five months off a year, with the medicine and it saves the body.”
“unlike Anders, Amanda responded to the medication.”
“She has been immunized against the birch in eight years and it has made a difference, she says.”
“– to the South you could sense the pollen more or less the year around, if it was a mild winter, ” says Amanda.”
“The regret is absolutely not the move to the north.”
“– I really enjoy it up here, ” says Amanda.”
“It’s a good life – and no firings, it is up here,” says Anders.”
“Karriärsdraget – in order to avoid pollen”
“But he thinks that it is heavily that nothing helps, that he will find any solution that can alleviate the discomfort.”
“Right now, I have run out of ideas,” he says.”
“the Hope now is to get a job on an offshore oil rig, far out in the sea.”
“It is the last straw.”
“He is educated and ready and ready to go, just someone to have a job at sea to offer.”
“– Preferably in the Northern arctic Ocean, write it, ” says Anders.”
