Allergic TO asthma? Now there's an interesting one. Surely asthma IS the allergic reaction (perhaps to some allergens further down the list) rather than the allergen? I think the poor person writing that article may need a little education...

hi ratty

sorry for confusion - xx

Nah, I think they're the confused ones. They do talk about asthma and allergy being related but asthma is definitely listed as the top 'allergy' with actual allergens further down the list. Some people might call me pedantic...

Here's a little url to the same article:
