Something set me off in church and even with my albuterol inhaler and
cough drops it was difficult.

There is now a medication you can give a dog or a cat that will cause it
to produce less dander and supposedly makes it easier on those with
dander allergies. When I had Felix, if I had someone coming over that
had cat allergies, I'd meet them outside so they'd not have to suffer.

Oh, I am on minocycline for the next three months. No sun, of course.
The timing is terrible for taking pills and I have yet to take a dose.
In about an hour, I'll finally take one. The rest of my medical team
doesn't understand why the infectious disease doctor keeps shoving
antibiotics in me since my cultures are showing up negative. He's
destroyed my gut flora though even with taking probiotics.

That does sound good. I like cilantro; I seem to be in a minority with
my friends and family in that respect.
A recipe for chicken scampi I MM'd quite a while back:
