Extra KC Poll

Postby GarethB » Thu 16 Mar 2006 1:34 pm

In addition to the KC poll

How many people have at one point or another sufferd atopic problems besides KC?

Please keep the other poll going as I would be interested to see the differnce between those who currently have other conditions and those who no longer have atopic conditions.

I would also like to distinguish between those that are under control (excluding KC). So for me my Asthma and Eczema are under control so I am not currently suffering from them, so I would answer NONE on the other poll, but TWO here.

The poll will be small, but it will perhaps help us as a group to decide what types of questions we would like to ask if we were to do a group wide survey via snail mail.

This is fun. I seem to be winning again. I don't suppose there is any prize?

My asthma has been alternating on and off ever since I had my first attack. Doctors blamed it on the monsoon climate here. I used to be allergic to a blackish substance found in tiger prawns (and other shelled seafoods?), but outgrew it over the years. As for the ampicillin, I didn't want to test whether I outgrew it already or not so I just keep it on the books. Besides, it will look beautiful when I have to apply for National Service.

Two

Oilseed blossom pollen and the preservative they put in eye drops. The first is a nuisance in May and the secomd is a nuisance all the time as I have to use preservative free eye drops

Does childbirth without any pain count for anything here, 9 years to the day, in fact I think my lack of sleep tonight is down to having been dumped in a bath as I was being too noisy for the middle of the night (keeping wriggling in bed, as I could not get comfy)

Probably just me that is odd :wink:

Hi Andrew

yes today (well what is left of it) is my little boys birthday and thankfully he is now fast asleep and tucked up in bed, after a very hectic day. He seemed to have a good time so that is all that matters really.

I am sure that tomorrow he will post a little reply, especially as you have all been so kind in commenting.

best wishes

Susan
