I really think I’m allergic to something…
And I know that the next easiest thing to actually go have a medical professional prick my arm with stuff, is to keep a log of everything I eat, every lotion, soap, etc. I put on my skin and any other allergen I might expose myself to and then try to figure out when it’s extra bad and what I ate, or sprayed myself with, or where I happened to go for a walk, that particular day.
But seriously, I don’t think I have the commitment it takes to do that.
The problem, in a nutshell, is that most of the time, about
80% of my waking hours, I feel like I can’t catch a full breath. This tends to
be especially noticeable after I eat or drink something… but does not seem to
be related to weather I eat an apple or a big meal. But as a result I get
tired, dizzy and have to yawn a lot.
People at the gym most think I’m nuts
cause I get on the machine and almost immediately start yawning like a mad
person, cause it’s the only way I can get enough air in my lungs. I’m not wheezing
or coughing though, like I imagine people with asthma would. That’s why I’m
guessing allergies.
But seriously, I have no idea where to start guessing and I’m
just really sick of constantly feeling so damn winded. Also, my skin itches, especially in the
morning. I have a little bit of a bloody nose every morning and a lot of the
time I just feel kind of crummy, but I blame that all on the breathing issues.
So, the floor is open… any guess is as
good as mine. Nuts, soap, grass, pollen?
Work?
I bet it’s work actually….
I hate that we don't have insurance that covers everything too I feel your pain
