In fact I forgot to add oil burners to my list of triggers! Asthma's a tricky one, such an individual thing.

Haven't had exposure to them, but wondering if the oil burners at yoga have contributed to my congested lungs lately.

I have asthma and they don’t affect me.

I live above a beauty salon, whose door (in a hallway) I have to pass to access my front door. They sell 'high quality' reed diffusers and have one open in the salon. It's setting off my asthma quite badly. They don't believe it's a trigger for me but have agreed to remove the diffuser for two days to see the effect. Halfway through day one I could breathe normally. I know I can't tolerate incense, cigarette smoke and plug-in air fresheners but this reaction has surprised me. Does anyone else on Gransnet react badly to reed diffusers?
