Fragrant Laced World

After reading another's experience with perfumes triggering their asthma, I wanted to share. From not being able to walk the laundry aisle, worried about the many essential oil users that trigger me, to the frustration of avoidance of public places because of high trigger areas, this is my life and I am finding out, others too.

Head to toe, the majority is fragranced and no clue it bothers asthmatics or I have experienced, some just don't care, it's their routine and they aren't changing.

I think maybe some good treatments are on the horizon. I am part of the PrecISE asthma study for severe, exacerbation prone asthma. I sure pray and hope we asthmatics have better controlled days ahead.
