It didn't affect me much at all... until today. But it wasn't my lungs.
Instead I've come down with the worst allergy attack I've had in years. Some
sort of cumulative effect that took a bit of time but when it hit this
morning... yikes. Pretty much flattened me all day. Just not beginning to
feel semi-human.
