I am unable to wear a mask due to my asthma! Some stores will not allow a person to shop if they don't wear a mask! They want to know why & if I say medical, they ask what my medical issue is and if I have proof of the medical issue! I politely tell them that is between me and my Dr. and is against the ADA & HIPPA! They don't care and say that it is the policy! I would like to know if anyone else has encountered this discrimination and how you handled it!
I understand your frustration. I can't wear any masks so far (still looking for something I can tolerate) You're right, we shouldn't have to carry around our diagnoses on our sleeve. I've given up on any expectation of privacy any more. I suppose the clerks are just trying to do their jobs and have something to tell their supervisors, and maybe feel as safe as possible themselves. They probably would accept a brief "asthma" and a display of an inhaler. Or you could try launching into a long...
I have asthma, severe asthma, all my life. Recently, I was diagnosed with allergies; environmental and food allergies. Both are no fun to have because one might not be triggered but the other does and vise versa.

Let me tell you, I don't need Science to tell me, I don't need the CDC, Dr. Fauci and the WHO to tell me that mask works because...IT DOES NOT...
When the covid first hit last year, an old friend told me she nebulizes H2O2 whenever she's exposed to crowds. She is anti-mask & anti-vax. I researched it a bit and found Dr Mercola (a popular internet alt-med "doctor" who markets all kinds of alt-med products and disperses covid disinformation) was advocating this. He's probably selling nebulizers / "food grade" H2O2. An immediate RED flag. I will say my dentist has me gargle with diluted H2O2 before checking my teeth and gums, so it...
After having asthma literally since the day I was born, having it uncontrolled for 33 years and after having been put on a ventilator and having my heart stop for 7 minutes with my last attack my Dr put me on Nucala and to say it has been life changing is completely true. I was using two inhalers in a month and now I have had the same inhaler for about 6 months. I hardly ever have to use it anymore. I am so beyond thankful for the advancements they have made with asthma. There has not been...
