Does anyone have any info on tree pollen allergy-induced migraines in children?

Recently, my 10 year old developed %26amp; was diagnosed with an allergy to oak pollen. She doesn't get the typical runny nose %26amp; sneezing, but her eyes get red %26amp; itchy, she gets chest tightness %26amp; says her throat is 'burning; sometimes she gets a horrible migraine, too. We've seen her pediatrician who recommended Kids' Claritin or Bendryl. (The Claritin gave her nosebleeds.) Does anyone out there have a child with a similar problem? What have you found that helps the most? She's seeing an allergist this week. I'm trying to find out as much info as I can. BTW, she's an athlete, loves the outdoors %26amp; will be away at 2 gymnastics camps this summer. Thanks in advance!
