Allergies & Sensitivities

While I was in Atlanta two weeks ago, I had an allergic reaction to something I ingested. I have had food and medication allergies and sensitivities for as long as I can remember. They are not to be taken lightly. I ended up in an ER! The staff took great care of me, and I'm thankful for my friends who were there to look after me. 

When I developed thyroid disease, hypothyroidism specifically, I started to pay even more attention to my sensitivities. I also live with asthma. It is especially important for asthmatics to be cognizant of the effects that pain killers, animals and environmental elements can have on them. 

Remember to read labels, listen to your body and love yourself.

Happy Thoughts!
