What's going on with you matters when it comes to asthma!
Patients with uncontrolled #asthma were more likely to request help for household asthma triggers and asthma at school than patients with controlled asthma, said @ChildrensNatl. Also, Andrea Pappalardo of @pappadoc52 and @thisisUIC comments. @HealioPulm bit.ly/3LZ2Gek

How amazing it was to lead an effort to educate and mentor residents with allergy interest through the @AAAAI_org presidential initiative called ROAR! Thank you to those amazing allergists that contributed as faculty in this effort! Allergy is the way to go! But I'm not biased.

Peanut introduction in Australia has gone from 22% to 86% to try to prevent peanut allergy. However the prevalence of peanut allergy has not dropped as much as expected #napaac22

Non-drowsy anti-histamines can be considered for mild cutaneous symptoms after reaction to a food, but should never delay use of IM epinephrine if there are signs of systemic symptoms #NAPAAC22
