Who has allergic reactions to laundry detergent...I DO!
Comments (41)A lot of people react to enzymes (and yes, most P&G detergents use enzymes) but I react more to the dyes and stench additives. Decades ago I would react to Tide and some others with the dyes and stench in them so I tried to buy dye/stench free whenever I could. Got some samples of the Tide when they changed the formula and concentrated it probably about 10 years ago and didn't react to it. My sister too, would react to Tide but she tried the "compacted" version and had no problem. Suggested it to my cousin with psoriasis and was very sensitive to detergents and that version was fine for him too. We all prefer the "free" versions and I still prefer the odorless types. I like the smell of Gain's apple/mango but don't really want to walk around smelling like a fruit salad. Don't want to smell anyway. When clothes stink, they need to be washed in my opinion. I don't really seem to react to any detergent I've tried in recent years but don't do a lot of experimenting anymore. And I started using an extra rinse and now with the new machine I can do the extra rinse automatically so it stays on. I also stay with a few proven detergent brands that clean my clothes well without all the extras I used to have to use when I used Arm & Hammer, All, Purex, Sun and other cheap brands. My clothes need enzymes to clean them apparently and rather than adding them I buy one of the few detergents that have a good mix of enzymes. Saves the cost of dishwashing detergent and borax. Jasdip, I'm with ya on the detergent aisles. And add in the stenchcandle areas of a store too. Do people just have no olfactory senses anymore? Most people use way more detergent than they should. If you look in the cap the first line is only about an inch in it. More is not better in detergents. Use what you should and what you need. Dirtier loads need more but it's just a waste to use too much....See MoreDid you have a reaction to the Covid vacine?
Comments (51)I just got my 2nd vaccine yesterday at 5:45PM. Moderna. I was shocked there was no line. I literally walked in and sat down for my shot. Got my shot in the right arm this time..they suggested it since I sleep on my left side so I'd at least be able to sleep comfortably. Iced the spot last night as it started to hurt, I think it helped. It's still sore today at the shot site only when I lift my air way up. I haven't had any fever/chill type symptoms so far. We'll see what tonight and tomorrow bring. ?? ETA: My daughter who also had moderna, she was two week ahead of me...nothing really after the first shot, she did get a rash around the shot are a week later. With her 2nd shot, about 9 hours in she had fever and chills but it bad according to her. She didn't get the rash around the shot site with the second vaccine....See MoreSide effects from booster shot
Comments (38)Carol, I prefer never having to use text for anything, if there are other options, and the VAERS site did say that they recommended that people use desktop or laptop computers rather than phones or tablets. The PDF form that I downloaded seemed a bit buggy, as it kept telling me that certain questions were ESSENTIAL even after I had answered them fully. I had all the info on my vaccination, including the lot numbers for the Moderna, although I do not have that for the Pfizer. I might not bother reporting the Pfizer incident, but I did report it to my doctor, and he thanked me for that. I do think that it is important that reactions to the vaccines get logged, so that if other people have them, they will know that they are not the only ones. I did feel some validation when I read about other people having the same reactions that I did to both vaccines, and I do believe that the reactions I had are relatively rare. I do feel a lot better knowing that I have had the booster, and at least I'm not losing sleep!...See MoreReaction to Booster and broken tooth/crown
Comments (6)Oh darn, sorry to hear it. I know what you mean. Just as soon as one ache and pain is resolved, another comes along. I went through a year long process to get a dental implant, thought I was finally done with it but now the crown is wobbling, so back to the dentist I go. Well, at least there is an end in sight! Feel well....See MoreJen K (7b, 8a)
