Dust Mites

A post-bronchitis follow-up visit to the doctor determined that I need to stay on allergy medicine. To discover why, the respiratory therapist suggested a blood test. The results: off-the-charts allergy to dust mites.

I came home and Googled dust mites and within a few clicks, I was horrified and disgusted.

Let me share with you a link to the Mayo Clinic's explanation of what they are and what to do.

Brace yourself. You yourself may rush to Target to purchase impermeable mattress and pillow covers, regardless whether or not you're allergic to these creatures.
