PSA for those with reactive-only asthma

[2Oldpeopleinlove]

Hi.

We recently returned from an Alaska Vancouver-Vancouver on QE. I hadn’t had an episode of needing inhalants for at least two years, but I’m fighting reactive asthma pretty hard in the week since we got home.

 

I’m pretty sure it was triggered by the many sanitizing agents used on board…and those lovely but smelly lilies. So, this is just a warning for anyone who has reactive breathing trouble. You might be triggered on board.

thanks for the advice. I do have asthma that can be triggered by some products. I'll make sure I have extra inhalers just in case.  Hope you had a good cruise apart from that.

I’m glad it helped someone. We absolutely did have a good time, even though some days it felt as if we were almost alone, given guest levels of less than 50% after the drop-off in LA. If we ever get the gardens back in shape, I’ll write about that.

 

We also brought home a drinks menu or three to share, should anyone need information.

I was told during my isolation on q219 the medical centre have brown and blue inhalers in their pharmacy

sadly no green that I needed mud isolation post cruise
