MS Flare?

Went for sleep study the other night, "wired for sound" LOL, and during night they came in and added CPAP machine with humidifier.  Slept like a baby and felt very refreshed next morning, which is unusual.  On way home started sneezing, allergy like, not like a cold.  2 days later, still sneezing and dripping but not like a cold.  Could it have triggered an MS reaction or just an allergic reaction to the humidifier?  I know I think they are supposed to use distilled water but I am allergic to city water with chlorine.  Allergy pills not working BUT if I am laying down asleep, no sneezing, no dripping, which is clear……..very puzzled

Nasalcort has now gone over the counter. I like nasonex and my doctor usually has samples. I am allergic to everything even my cat who sleeps with me.

Sneezing would not be MS related. The chemicals and cleaning agents in hospitals set off my allergies. The one that gets me is the hand soap. I use the stuff and effects me until I take shower and wash it off. Also the cleaning agents have a lot of chemicals.
