Michigan, Houston, Washington, Oregon
I grew up in Michigan - where my allergies/asthma begun around 8 yrs. old and it stayed semi-severe into my teens.
I moved to Houston, Texas in my 20’s, where I rarely had any symptoms the whole 8 yrs. I lived there.
I then joined the Navy, which moved me to Whidbey Island, Washington, where I had a few problems the 5 yrs. that I had lived there.
I now live near Portland, Oregon and I usually have mild asthma symptoms throughout the year - I use my inhaler frequently. I’m allergic to mold, pollen, grass, weeds, trees. Of course, there’s lots of mold here - due to all of the rain. — Marie, Oregon
