could be food allergies or related to mold sensitivities. vinegar crosses with

molds. I am also guessing if you have used evil candy, steroid inhalers that

there is a bit of candida going on. also, drainage combined with all of this is

not good.

I felt like hugging that poster (Ok a big virtual HUG!). I have food

triggers too that start the spasms and then the coughing begins and it

all goes downhill from there. Mine are vinegar things (ketsup has

become a real nuisance - and I love french fries with ketsup) -- salad

dressings (vinegar based), red wine and champange are also become

triggers for me. My husband laughed because the other other night as

we were entering a restaurant I did 2 'puffs' of albuterol -- he gave

me that questioning look and I replied, " honey, I want some champange

tonight " . And yes, I am not allergic to these foods -- they just set

me off (good news is I have mastered making salad dressing with orange

and lemon juice)bad news is I crave french fries all the time now :-)
