  Allergic rhinitis symptoms profoundly affect the quality of life as well as work productivity according to Myron J. Zitt, M.D., clinical associate professor of medicine, State University of New York, Stony Brook, N.Y. "Adults may have mood swings and be less efficient at work or at home.They often have a poor quality of sleep, may suffer from obstructive sleep apnea and thereby experience daytime fatigue."He noted a correlation between high pollen counts and low work productivity.
  
  "Children with allergic rhinitis often experience increased shyness, anxiety and fatigue.Nasal congestion and other symptoms can cause significant impairment in learning and cognition," he said.
  
  "Another area of concern is the trivialization of allergic rhinitis.It is an important illness, but it is underappreciated, under-diagnosed and under-treated.Polls show that only 19 percent of people taking medications for allergic rhinitis are being seen by a specialist, who are the best qualified to treat the disease," Dr. Zitt said.
