Need advice
They must know you have asthma so why not tell them the basement is a bit damp for you as it's setting it off. If there is no where that isn't damp could you move out? x
Yes they know IT is not usually damp but the weather changed but now it’s better
Hi Lene-Alice
My asthma is very effected by damp and I make myself a cup of ginger and lemon tea, sweetened with honey. Buy some fresh ginger root and cut a piece about an inch or so in size. Peel it and grate and put into a cup
Add fresh lemon and honey and pour on boiling water. Let is stand for 5 minutes or so and then strain it into another cup and drink.
The heat from the ginger helps to take away the damp that is in your lungs. I swear by it.
My first thoughts where go and find a b and b...on a better note can you not see if there's somewhere else that isnt damp you could stay inthe house??
It's obviously difficult, but you need to get away from the damp. It's obviously a trigger for you, so you need to deal with it & avoid your holiday deteriorating. I'm sure your family understand, but even if they don't you have to protect yourself regardless.
