I don't have a flu. Whatever this is, it's allergy/asthma related. I think my body's just decided to go full-on autoimmune and bite its own ass.

I dropped off the car at noon. Meandered through Barrack's Road Shopping Center, then discovered I'd missed both busses by five minutes. Not wanting to wait *in the sun* for another hour, I walked a mile to UVA's central grounds, then caught the free trolley downtown, then walked home. Boy called while I was on the way to tell me the car was done. I called him back and asked him to start walking toward me to pick up the bags I was carrying.

Note to self: It's hot (okay, 81F, but it's JUNE), humid (74%), and grass pollen is about. There's also a sizeable amount of traffic since it's now tourist/conference season. Smog, sun, and pollen, dear. You have asthma. This is not a good situation. Don't try to walk a mile and a half in the sun while carrying bags of bread, wine, and kitchen floormats. It's just not a good idea. Now, drink some water and rest quietly inside, where it's cool. And call your doctor. He needs to help you figure out why your asthma is acting up when you're on maintenance meds that normally control it.

its been a horrible allergy (& for me asthma) season all around. i'm choosing to blame it on all that rain myself.

i hope it starts clearing up for you soon.

Does this mean that you need my number again?

If I really can't pick you up, or if I'm out of town, I'll tell you. But most of the time there is nothing so pressing going on that I can't run out for 20 minutes if you get stuck somewhere.

I've been wondering what's up with this autoimmune shit this week too. I'm having the worst fibro flare ever. Every muscle and joint I have is screaming. Allergies are kicking my ass too. Enuff already!

Here's to hoping things calm down Soon.

Have you checked the mold count? I have found since I have autoimmune disorder that when the fungus count gets high..usually when it has been raining alot...that my breathing gets really out of wack. I hope you feel better soon hon.

The mold and fungus count here is definitely doing a number on me and my head. Haven't had a sinus flareup this bad in quite awhile. I hope you start to feel some relief soon.
*hugs*
