Should I get a flu shot this year?
Dr. Hudelson is in favor of everyone getting a flu shot because:
1. Flu vaccination keeps you from getting sick with the flu and prevent millions of illness and flu-related doctor visits each year.
2. Flu vaccines prevent tens of thousands of hospitalizations each year (up to 40 % in elderly patients).
3. Flu vaccines can significantly reduce a child’s risk of dying from the flu. Never having the flu is not a guarantee that you won’t ever get it. Even if you have an amazing immune system and never get sick, there’s no guarantee during the flu season.

If you are planning a Labor Day celebration for this weekend, the FARE tips listed below can help make sure it's food allergy friendly. Stay safe and have fun! :)
🍴 Provide labels or markers to write names on cups to prevent mix-ups.
🍴 Ask your guests ahead of time how you can best help them have a safe and enjoyable time.
🍴 If there will be allergens present, be sure to clearly label those dishes.
🍴 Clean your grill thoroughly and provide foil to wrap food to help prevent cross contact.
🍴 Barbecue sauce is a typical unexpected source of many allergens. If you are cooking for a guest with food allergies, you could try making this recipe that is free of the top eight allergens.
🍴 Wipe down tables, chairs, toys, and cooking surfaces to remove traces of food – and have extra wipes available for others to use when needed!
🍴 Be sure to talk to everyone in attendance, especially children with food allergies, about not sharing food before the get-together starts.
🍴 Clearly label water bottles or cups with everyone’s names; teach children which ones are theirs.
🍴 Double-check the product labels on insect sprays and sunscreens; some contain food allergens.
🍴 Consider asking everyone to provide their own meals/food – this covers cross-contact from a food allergy standpoint as well as just in case.
🍴 Keep epinephrine auto-injectors at room temperature, out of direct sunlight and extreme heat (do not refrigerate or store in the car). If necessary, you can store epinephrine in a cooler.
🍴Keep tabs on how many alcoholic beverages you drink, as alcohol consumption may lower your ability to recognize an allergic reaction, give medications, and summon help. It also may lower inhibitions when it comes to social distancing!
🍴 When in doubt, eat a quick meal before you go. The fun in going to a cookout is really in enjoying your friends!

Tips to Avoid Dust Mite Allergens
Unfortunately triggers for indoor allergies lurk throughout most homes. One of the most common indoor allergens are dust mites. These are microscopic bugs that feed off of shed human skin cells.
Here are tips to help avoid dust mite allergens:
✔️ Cover your mattress and pillows with a dust mite encasement
✔️ Wash your bedding in hot water once a week
✔️ Vacuum carpet and rugs twice a week with a high efficiency particulate air filter

Summer officially begins tomorrow, but we've already experienced extreme heat this month. North Texas reached record temperatures during an intense heat wave the first week of June.
“People assume spring and fall are the worst times of year for those with allergies, but summer can torch your sense of well-being,” says allergist Mark Corbett, president of the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI). “Summer allergies bring their own set of unique problems for those who suffer. But there are ways to cool down allergic reactions and asthma flares. Seeing your allergist is one way to keep yourself on track, and make sure you’re out enjoying the bright sunny days.”

Find Relief from Adult-onset Asthma
Signs of asthma may not appear until later in life for some people. This is known as adult-onset asthma.
Sometimes, people just manage to essentially avoid their asthma triggers for years. When they are then exposed to that trigger as an adult, it can bring on asthma symptoms. Other times, a viral infection can unmask their asthma symptoms. For example, they may have an upper respiratory infection that leads to a cough that sticks around for weeks. ACAAI.ORG
