Sensitive to wildfire smoke :(

It's been six years since i've used steroids and i'm incredibly bothered by environmental irritants. I live in minnesota, and there's wildfires here, and up in canada, and i've just had to stay inside to start recovering. But I can't just stay inside for months at a time till they go away... Is there anything I can do to make my body less reactive? The only thing I can find is healing at a cellular level and reducing oxidative stress/load

Environmental irritants ?

I'm six years into TSW and i'm experiencing a minor flare up right now... I'm wondering if wildfire smoke and poor air quality can influence a flareup. I'm in minnesota, and recently there have been a bunch of wildfires. I'm trying to limit going outside as much as possible. And I have an air purifier, but other than that, i'm not really sure what else to do ... Either way very frustrating :(

Support group?

Hi everyone I wanted to start a once monthly support group for those of us struggling with TSW. This condition is so hard and support feels limited. Comment if you might be interested and I will see if it makes sense.

Signs of heart issues?

I feel like I see all these posts and social media saying, my husband just dropped dead of myocarditis or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or whatever and it's starting to stress me out. Are there signs for these things that people can watch out for or does it truly just happen randomly? Thanks

There is no reason to accept disrespect

I am sooo concerned by some of the posts in this sub. I say this with such love but there is no reason anyone should have to endure abuse, cruel words, etc and feel like they have to keep those clients or not press charged etc. People are not exempt from consequences due to their trauma. Much love

I bought this woodland creature crochet kit and I am not understanding these instructions at all...it's for a turtle

For the spots on its shell it says "make an adjustable ring"

Round 1: 6sc in ring (6)

Round 2: 2sc in each st (12)

Round 3: *sc 2sc in next st* (18)

Maybe I'm also tired but I dunno wtf this is talking about lol . Thanks ❤️
