While there are good days and bad it is important to celebrate 🎉 the good ones. So proud of our #felineasthma #warrior
The air is poison today so I wore my mask for my entire workout. I don’t know how firefighters do all that training with respirators on, but I’m possibly gonna find out. I wore a mask while running, biking, doing about 150 walking lunges, a heap of Nordic curls, knee raises, and a bunch of high crossbody box step-ups. I wore a mask yesterday for a 5km cross country hike. Wearing a mask while training is a heck of a handicap. I feel like I’m doing everything while carrying a sandbag. It’s a lot harder for me to regulate my breathing because the fitted piece going over my nose feels like it’s cutting off some of my nasal airways, and I end up sucking wind through my mouth instead. That’s not great for my asthma, but neither is this poison air. I just pace myself as best as I can. #RespiratoryDisease #Asthma #ClimateDiary #MaskUp #CanadaWildfires #Fitness
The world outside apparently is trying to kill me this time of year, with how difficult it's been for me to breathe the last three weeks, lol.
It ain't even Spring?!

Even the taste is lacking, like, where's my medicine? Did it come out? There's an aftertaste on the exhale, and that's pretty much the only thing besides wheezing relief that says yes, medicine did come out, since there's none of the normal sensory feedback from the inhaler. Do not like lol

I refilled my inhaler script, and I got a generic inhaler from the pharmacy, and I hate it lol
So, inhalers have a sort of mouthfeel/sensory feedback when you press down the canister for the puff. There's a force, a taste, a coating in your mouth if you don't use a spacer. This generic inhaler significantly lacks that force, and I actually kinda hate it. I know I'm a weirdo, but this is literally 30 years of normalcy, upended.

In a study led by Ann Cheney at UC Riverside, caregivers said the Salton Sea environment is toxic to children's health.
Sulfuric smells, dust storms, chemicals, and fires in the area contribute to chronic health conditions among kids, including asthma, bronchitis, and pneumonia, they reported.
Cheney and her team engaged with 36 people via focus groups or one-on-one interviews. Participants lived in the northern part of the Salton Sea and were Latinx and Indigenous Mexican caregivers of children with asthma and respiratory problems. The study was conducted from fall 2019 to spring 2021.

Australians on the east coast, inland at least as far as Canberra, if you have friends who get #pollen or #thunderstorm #asthma, today is a very likely day for it to happen. I closed my windows and put air filters on and saw a near-instant difference to my breathing. Medicine helps, but clear air helps even more.

"Babies and young children with diverse bacteria in their gut are less likely to develop allergy-related wheezing and asthma, according to a new Australian study.
Communities of bacteria, known as microbiota, develop in the human body during the early
years of life and are involved in processes that are helpful to the body, such as synthesizing vitamins and boosting the immune system. They can also be occasionally unhelpful, due to the role they play in inflammatory bowel disease and stomach ulcers.
Babies already have some microbiota in their guts from their mothers when they are born. The diversity of bacteria then increases and matures as they are exposed to other children, animals, and different foods.
The researchers analyzed data from the Barwon Infant Study (BIS), which has been running in Australia since 2010, watching 1,074 babies as they grow."

@johannes_lehmann I'll bite, I'm in #PublicHealth and one of these journals has PH in the title. I have years of experience in PH but I don't have years of experience in ALL aspects of PH. Sure, I can read your abstract and will read the manuscript but that doesn't give me your insight into the context and scope of your work. Give me a manuscript on #COPD and I know the PH context but #Asthma, much less knowledge there so I appreciate an honest and earnest cover letter.

As someone w/asthma, this summer of wildfire smoke was very difficult, w/3 exacerbations in as many months. (FYI: An exacerbation can debilitate for days or weeks.) Worst asthma summer in recent memory. Studies did not document visits to pulmonologist offices.

The smoke from #Canadian #wildfires that drifted into the U.S. led to a spike in people with #asthma visiting emergency rooms — particularly in the #NewYork area.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published two studies Thursday about the health impacts of the smoke, which shrouded city skylines with an orange haze in late spring. A medical journal also released a study this week.

I screwed up today.
I had arranged last week to let my car get taken 20 miles away today and had to ride my bike to go get it.
Historically hasn't caused me problems but tonight I have asthma. 😕
I've always had asthma. I don't think it bothers me often, but maybe it does. I race bikes so I'm pretty aware when I can't breathe.
Last real asthma attack - 2015, time before that 1997 from cats.
Closed up the house, turned on the heat pump’s ac, cranked up the HEPA filter and watching 'Hi Nellie’ with Paul Muni, Glenda Farrell. AQI is152 in Seattle, getting worse. Cancelled my 8am pool appointment. #wildfires #asthma #stopfossilfuels #climateemergency #masks
So I was out tonight and suddenly out of nowhere my #asthma decided to act up. It scared me. It’s been many many years since this has happened but started up again after we moved.
Do I have any asthmatic friends on here I can talk to about this?
I immediately had to go home to use my inhaler. 🤕

"The taxpayer-funded research by the University of Pittsburgh adds to a body of evidence suggesting links between the #GasIndustry and certain health problems.

The past few years, I've been particularly interested in studying #Marxist #Leninist #Maoist theories of #socialism, #communism, dialectical materialism, and historical materialism.
If I walk into a doctor's office, have a seat and explain to the doc I have a medical issue that causes clotting, have a history of saddle pulmonary embolism, and a history of reactive airway disease:
Yes, that makes you a Nazi eugenicist doctor if you dont immediately don a mask.
And since you dont know who has that profile, WEAR A FUCKING MASK in the healthcare fucking setting.

Day 7 of moderate air quality and I'm now pretty ill 😢.
Air quality is still moderate, and might be locally poor today especially near roads or other pollution sources. The ozone alert for London was extended to cover today too.
(On a personal note, so far I haven't got ill from this episode like I did in Feb. I think likely because particulate matter from smoke isn't really in the pollution mix at the moment.)
This is the advice that Belgium gives its citizens during an ozone alert, and it's good advice for us today.
(From: https://crisiscenter.be/en/risks-belgium/health-risks/peak-ozone-level)
Defra forecast for today and the outlook is for moderate levels of pollution for much of the country: https://uk-air.defra.gov.uk/
If we do get high levels of ozone, there will be alerts published on this page.
The Mayor of London has issued the following advice aimed at reducing air pollution this morning:
"Toxic air is dangerous, especially for those with heart and lung conditions. Please avoid unnecessary car journeys, engine idling and don’t burn wood or garden waste."
This is due to the likelihood of high levels of street level ozone developing.
(See: https://londonair.org.uk/LondonAir/Forecast/, Mayor of London advice reposted from Twitter)
Crowd sourced map which I think is largely based on particulate matter measurements already showing localised unhealthy air quality for parts of London and the South East so far this morning.
Have shut the windows and put my HEPA filter on.
Forecast and outlook over next few days for air quality again moderate.
🟡 The air quality forecast is for moderate air quality across large parts of the UK tomorrow.
Defra say outlook is: "Air pollution levels likely to remain at Moderate levels due to the very warm, locally hot and humid conditions persisting into early next week. Scattered showers and thunderstorms reducing levels in places."
This is the weather that really badly affects my asthma, definitely staying indoors and running my HEPA filter.
Was just working and apparently roadworks nearby spewed toxic burning tar into the air and triggered my #asthma and #SensorySensitivity together. Sure do love to be working in a "low cost of living" area so I can be paid less for the same work in literal bioharzards.

(I'm looking to purchase a second domestic scale model that I can automate to turn on and off. My current Levoit model won't work even with a timer plug, which I'm now finding limiting.)
Dear fellow hayfever sufferers, might I recommend the University of Worcester pollen forecast page?
They split the forecast by type into grass pollen, tree pollen, fungal spores, and weed pollen. I find it super useful to know more precisely what's causing symptoms.
(Regrettably their website is in need of some tlc and has no feed, but occasionally checking-in is v helpful for me.)
