Chamomile Tea - side affects or bad reactions

Has any one had any side affects when drinking this tea.

I'm allergic to chamomile. If i drink it i feel all itchy. I have switched to green tea or white tea.

I do drink chamomile. It is supposed to have anti-inflammation properties. I drink it every other day. I alternate with mint tea, which is also supposed to have anti-inflammation properties. I haven't had any side effects. But I have noticed that my skin is dryer than normal and wasn't sure what was causing it. Perhaps it is chamomile tea causing my skin to be dryer than normal.

I drink a cup of hot chamomile tea with honey every night about an hour before bed. I find it really calms an upset tummy when I have one, and tastes pretty good, when tummy is find. It also makes me feel somewhat sleepy, too. I do have allergy problems and ragweed recently ran wild and free down here a few weeks ago--went right into a sinus infection for me, but I don't see any reactions to the chamomile--that is interesting connetion, pb4. I'll have to look into that a bit more.

Use extra virgine olive oil as a moisturizer, it does wonders.
