Hi Sillysally.. Yes these comments on this particular post pop out reverse than the others with the oldest comment at the bottom and the newer ones at the top. It confused me too because I made that cat/dog comment a while back before your comments. Awesome on homemade products! I usually buy 7th Generation products or use vinegar water with a few drops of essential oils. If you ever want to share your cleaning recipes, Id love to hear them! I am really trying to keep up on all my cleaning...
Hi, SillySally! Welcome to AAFA's online community!

you are spot on vinegar, baking soda, lemon oil in water will all clean alot and produce little allergy for me. cloves and cinnamon if not allergic or peppermint oil all can be dilute help keep away pets and spiders from areas one does not want them. I am lower income and learned to make out of neessity when I was young, people just thought I was a hippie
I live in the mountains my problems are with the apartment complex moving in smokers who have to smoke outside and the drift coming in my apartment with my doors and widows closed and scents from cleaners and I think diffusers and I have had a few days where I was not able to leave my patio it was so bad I am demanding under the ada to be accomodated and having to go through fair housing. I already know how tl control my asthma,allergies and epilepsy otherwise, management just says I have...

No it's not well controlled and adjusting my asthma treatment plan will not do a **** thing to improve it, my lung function is only at 25% I'm also on Flovent and Spiriva and singulair all for my asthma and it's still not controlled I use my ventolin many times during the day, and go through 1 rescue inhaler every 15 days, and no matter what my asthma doctor puts me on it has not improved, my asthma was under control when they made the Maxair autoinhaler but since they stopped making it I...
These new biologics are expensive-- even with insurance the out of pocket costs make them unaffordable to me. That might change with time. I know there are some programs out there that help people, but in my current situation none help me. I am also curious if people are able to stop them without needing to go back on them or oral steroids, or if they need to continue them indefinitely. I also worry about any new medications long-term risks, like for cancers. Some of that is hard to know...
I’ve suffered from eczema, along with asthma for my entire life due to extreme prematurity. I’ve always found it to be quite a nuisance, but especially more so once I entered HighSchool. I mainly suffer with eczema on my arms and legs. It took going through so many different medications to find what didn’t burn my skin, or make it itch a thousand times worse, and as a young kid, that impulse control was non-existent to the point where my arms would be cracked with blood. Luckily, it’s gotten...
I believe this is a critical, and often overlooked, aspect of treatment and applaud your efforts. However, I think there’s a major flaw in your survey - it asks only about short courses of oral corticosteroids, and not higher dosages. For asthma patients like me, with severe, hard-to-impossible to control asthma, short courses haven’t been effective in 25 years. In addition, I now have some of the worst possible long-term side effects of steroid use because of having been prescribed an...
Bleah, I hate to double post, but apparently it's been too long to edit since I was going back over the article to make sure I didn't miss anything. At any rate, just off the top of my head, I notice the following issues with this study (given the information presented in the blog; mayhaps the actual study addresses these?): 1) Number of participants: 223 2) The study was entirely self-report -- no control groups, no accounting for bias, wasn't double-blind, etc. etc. The article makes it...
