I got allergies on the brain today so I'm gonna keep talking about them

My favorite foods from the ages of 2-4 were shrimp and those lil fruit cocktail cups (like pears, peaches, and cherries mixed together)

When i turned five, the doctor ordered an allergy test because I was having mystery reactions (reactive eczema + allergic asthma mix). What were the top three allergies from that test you might ask?

1. Shellfish. In fact, all fish! Any living sea creature was supposed to put me straight into anaphylaxis (it already had been, albeit slowly).

Suggestion from doc: cut it out completely, it will get worse with exposure.

2. Peaches, which also was supposed to put me into anaphylaxis. This later became any and all stone fruits giving minor-moderate reactions (made me think papaya was spicy!).

Suggestion from doc: you guessed it! Cut it out, it will get worse with exposure!

3. Horses, my favorite animal at the time (horse girl). Which also would have put me where? STRAIGHT INTO FUCKING ANAPHYLAXIS.

Suggestion from doc: never let a horse or anyone who has touched a horse within a week even come near me, as I *will* die.

So my mother had to look at her five year old, and not only tell her that her two biggest safe foods were off the table, but that all of the backups were too. And on top of it, she would *not* be allowed to ever ride the animal that was her first ever hyperfixation because it would ✨️kill her horribly✨️!

The fact I can’t take any cough medicines or any antihistamines or any corticosteroids ever without it triggering 12+ hours of psychotic bipolar hell pisses me off to no end. Ragweed is making me severely sick right now and I cannot do anything about it. It’s so painful and I can’t breathe. I may have to go to the hospital tomorrow if my shallow breathing/wheezing worsens anymore than it has, I’ve felt faint all day

:(

Just turmeric broths, teas, and Vicks rub and this time the allergy attack is so bad nothing is bringing relief. I haven’t slept much all week, which is my norm being a chronic insomniac, however its really putting me in the pits.

A paperweight in the shape of a wadded up piece of yellow lined paper. Apparently these are collectibles and $28 new.

A package of "Allerceptor" nostril filters that I presume were donated because they're uncomfortable to wear. Someone had already taken some out of the package. The package promises they can filter out 99% of irritants from the air.

I miss falling asleep on the couch and waking up to a cat laying on my face, falling back asleep and waking up later to said cat having squished themselves between my face/neck and the couch backing

Hey y'all! Question for all my fellow migraine-havers out there: Are allergy migraines a thing? And if so, are they usually treated by treating the migraine or by treating the allergy? I get migraines, light sensitivity, nausea, sometimes visual aura, all that stuff, but only ever as part of an allergic reaction. Headache medications barely touch it, darkness and caffeine and sleep help, but the thing that helps the most is benadryl. If I catch the migraine as it's starting, I can usually stop it or at the very least make it significantly less bad with a single children's chewable benadryl (I am aware I am very, very lucky in that and am so glad to have figured out the benadryl trick, I've ended up in the ER from untreated migraines causing severe dehydration before) My migraines showed up on my MRI* but my allergists have said it shouldn't work like that and idk that I've ever heard someone else mention taking antihistamines as a migraine medication, except maybe as an antinausea thing? *"consistent with sequelae of migraines" was the official wording, I think

Great news, friends. Yesterday they assigned my supervising manager to Observe me at the info desk so I couldn't do time theft and I devised an appropriate task to Look Busy and after an hour she was like "well this was absolutely useless, you obviously know how to do your job, godspeed" ✌

Preventative inhaler: *protects the basic fundamental bodily function of breathing properly*

Me: *frequently forgets to use it if I'm not exhibiting symptoms*

Being allergic to any drug is so fucking funny to me (I'm allergic to weed)

The fuck you mean I'm genetically predisposed to be lame

For your modern avatar au What if spider has some sort of respiratory diseases, or other chronic inflammatory lung or obstructive lung diseases. Because he has to were a oxygen mask in the movie.

Alright here is my answer finally @peachycrime

Okay, unfortunately my first thought was the fucking 2001 comedy/romance Bubble Boy, so that's cool.

Luckily for you I've been in the reddie fandom hardcore since 2016 so WE KNOW ABOUT ASTHMATIC HEADCANONS IN THIS HOUSE.

I think I'd pick like severe asthma because it just jives for me, but if you wanna go crazy we could really have a fucking Fault in our Stars/Five Feet Apart moment here. Really lean into locorro or spiri here.

-Spider lived with Norm for years because he was the foster parent they had with the most medical experience, but eventually he just was LIVING with Jake and Neytiri .

-Stay at home wheelchair dad Jake Sully with his three little kids under three had none of the attention or free time to dedicate to a kid with medical issues, but him and work from home Norm become a seamless team in the kids toddler years.

-Neytiri had just finished her residency so she was simply flawless with him. He's pretty much a normal kid, he's just got bad asthma. He does all physical activity he can, but he gets out of breath quickly and has to stop for a puff or two before he can get back out there.

-Neteyam is younger but they're in the same grade because Spider got held back because he was so lil because he was a sick kid before Neytiri and Norm got a hold of him.

-He carries around an inhaler and Neteyam also carries around an inhaler because Neteyam may be younger but he is so protective of Spider and so worried about him losing his breath when they are at school and their parents aren't around.

-Tonowari and Jake meet at the playground on a Saturday and all of a sudden Jake is an after-school care, watching his own four kids and Ao'nung and Tsireya (and neighborhood latchkey kid Rotxo who Spider loves because he was also a latchkey kid).

-Ao'nung gets mad at Spider during a game of pickle where they are both the taggers because Spider stops to tag a puff. Ao'nung insists he has to keep going and Spider does and ends up passing out.

-He's not allowed to run or do anything strenuous for two days and Ao'nung is grounded by Ronal for a week. Neteyam and Kiri don't talk to him for a day. He feels really bad though and after that he yells at any kid who tries to get Spider to do anything physical at school until a teacher has to call home and they all have to have a chat lol.

-Neytiri and Norm we're absolutely unbearable for days, hovering over him and making him drink water, while Jake was treating Spider exactly the same. They are disability buddies and Jake would never treat Spider as fragile because he isn't. In fact, they played catch later that night even though Spider was sitting down and it gave Neteyam an aneurysm.

-Lo'ak always explains to strangers that his brother is cool he just has "shit lungs" because he heard Jake say that one time.

-Reddie moment: "Spider Sully Blasts Off!" every time he uses his inhaler.
