The Most Common Causes of Allergies
Allergy season is coming up folks, and with an estimated 50 million Americans suffering from allergies, it's sure to be a sneezy season. Sure, you can stock up on antihistamines and drudge through the late Winter and early Spring months in a haze. But, wouldn't it be easier to learn the common causes of allergies and avoid them?
We think so!
Find out the most common causes of allergies below and make sure to stop by one of our eleven convenient locations if you need some speedy allergy relief.
Airborne Allergens
Airborne allergens are what people typically think of when they think of allergies. These are the tiny particles that cause you to get runny eyes and noses, start sneezing your head off, and generally feel crummy.
These allergens enter your body, normally through the nose, and cause your immune system to jump into overdrive. Your immune system thinks they're harmful bacteria and begins to produce antibodies to fight them. These antibodies, combined with other chemicals they release called histamines, create the allergy symptoms you know and love.
Airborne allergens include a wide range of particles, including: pollen, dander, mold, dust mites, and more.
Food allergies are, generally speaking, a bit more serious than airborne allergies. While airborne allergies are frustrating, they're rarely fatal. Food allergies can be, if they produce anaphylaxis.
Almost all food allergens are proteins. Your immune system mistakes these proteins for harmful particulars in the same way they mistake airborne allergens for harmful bacteria. The result is an immune reaction that causes allergy symptoms, including anaphylaxis in extreme cases.
Common food allergies include: peanuts, tree nuts (almonds, Brazil nuts, walnuts, and hazelnuts), shellfish, soybean, wheat, fish, milk, and eggs.
Insect Stings
Insect stings are another common culprit of allergic reactions. They're also another cause of anaphylaxis, making them a bit more serious than airborne allergens. Insect sting allergic reactions are caused by your immune system reacting to the insect's venom.
There are four main types of insects whose strings cause allergic reactions: bees, hornets, yellow jackets, and wasps. Fire ants can also produce allergic reactions, though these are less common than stings from flying insects.
Medications can also be allergens. They produce an allergic reaction when your white blood cells misidentify them as a threat. These white blood cells then release antibodies which cause allergic symptoms. Medication allergies can also result in anaphylaxis and something called Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis. Although these severe reactions are rare, they can happen.
All medications can cause an allergy reaction depending on someone's individual biochemistry. Yet, there are some common culprits: antibiotics (specifically penicillin and amoxicillin), sulfa antibiotics, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (commonly called NSAIDs, including aspirin and ibuprofen), and chemotherapy medications.
There you have the most common causes of allergies. Learn them and make sure to stay away from these triggers! If you do run into one, come into Urgent Med today. We accept a wide range of insurances and have competitive pricing if you don't use insurance. More importantly, you can be in and out on your lunch break and get immediate allergy relief.

Merry New Zealand
Tuesday, November 20, 2007
I know some of my high school buds and college friends trying to find their luck as they work abroad. While getting either a tourist or working visa in the US can be pretty tough, visiting New Zealand is a breeze. Now that Christmas season is just around the corner, plane ticket prices have gone up wild. Having said that, finding the
cheap flights
off to New Zealand can be really taxing. You can find the best
holiday offers
flights to Christchurch
. This is an al-in-one website where you can book your hotels, plane tickets and land transportation all in.

In other happy news, Jason is getting out of the Navy in March and we're moving to Massachusetts! This means he won't go on the six-month (November 2007 to March 2008) cruise I'd been not-so-silently dreading. I love being a Navy wife, and I am endlessly proud of Jason for all he's accomplished as a sailor, but having him home with me is far more important than anywhere they could possibly send him and any accolade they could possibly give him.
As a result, we canceled the lease for the apartment we were going to move to, and I told my boss I'll be leaving. It will be interesting to see how they'll deal with replacing me.
Lest you think Jason got nothing for his stellar jewelry fetching, behold his ultimate reward: a cat-proof entertainment center and a TV wider than my backside--37 inches (the TV, not me). He swears he'll never want a bigger TV. Yeah, right.

I have always liked to look at a new month as a fresh start to try new things and get various goals accomplished. My love for fall makes September one of my favorite months out of the entire year. While summer is still in the air, you can feel the transformation with mother nature begin. The temperature starts dropping, leaves start changing colors, and pumpkin spice flavor can be seen in every store and coffee shop.
To get us into the fall season I have come up with 17 fun ideas that you could try for September. Add one or all to your list and remember to enjoy yourself and take time out of each day for self-care and happiness. Let me know in the comments below which ones you try out or what you have on your list of to-dos for the month of September! I'm always excited to hear your stories or to steal a few ideas to try out myself.
- Read a new book
- I personally love starting off the fall season by reading the Harry Potter series. There is something about those books that always gives me autumn vibes (possibly because they start in the fall). Choose a favorite book of yours or try out a new one you have been thinking of reading!
- This, to me, is the perfect time for evening strolls around the neighborhood or a day hike near home. With the weather cooling down in September you don't feel like your entire body is melting away and the changing season actually smells terrific! (Sounds weird, but you know it's true)
- Whether you have a small little balcony, a porch, or just your indoor space, a few autumn plants make the place feel colorful. You can get some mums (which come in an array of fall colors) or any plant you feel like. I love planting a few colorful plants in pots to arrange on our porch to really get into the vibe. You can even get a few pumpkins to decorate with (it is never too early for pumpkins).
- A new month is a great start to try out a new routine that you have been thinking of adding. I talked about 5 Morning Routines for Success in an earlier article if you need a place to start.
- I have a lot of friends who get together each year to have a bbq for an end of summer bash. Get some family or friends together and enjoy good food with great company!
- Nothing makes me think of autumn as much as bonfires do. The weather is just cold enough to enjoy the warm crackling flames, and you can have fun bonding over smores and late night discussions.
- Whether it is for your neighbors, your friends, or just yourself, it is always fun to get out the cooking utensils for some fantastic desserts. Caramel apples and pumpkin-flavored treats are a great way to get the season off on a sweet start!
- You don't have to just do a good spring cleaning. For me, I love cleaning up in the fall by getting out the winter gear and putting away some summer items. It is also a great way to get rid of some clutter and decorate the house in festive colors for the second half of the year.
- Have you always wanted to try out painting? Give it a go! Find something that brings you joy and incorporate it into your weekly life for some extra self-care time.
- Friendships are amazing, and we can always use some amazing in our lives. Go to your local coffee shop and strike up a conversation with the barista or coffee drinker. This could even be rekindling a friendship with someone you lost touch with.
- Spend some quality time with family and start a fun, creative project. This could be finger paintings or creating fun wreaths for your front door. Not only will you have a fun time with your project, but it will also give you a chance for quality family moments.
- Not all places open in September, but there is usually a pumpkin patch that will be opening up this month. Take the family and kids to pick out some pumpkins or enjoy the fun little activities they have (usually there is a fun little maze to walk through).
- This should be on our list all the time (not just in September) but a new month could be a great reminder. Help someone get groceries to their car or just bake a pie for your neighbor. They will love it, and it feels good to help out others.
- Journaling, for me, has been so liberating and genuinely promotes self-care. Get a cute little journal to write down your thoughts and scribbles. It can help get things off your mind, and you will be amazed at how amazing it feels afterward.
- Scents can positively be associated with emotions. Fall scents have always been a huge stress reliever for me, and I make it a point to get new candles around the house each year. Plus it still is nice to have a delicious aroma spread throughout your home.
- Whether it is far away or just a few minutes, taking a little trip could be the perfect medicine. You can leave all your stresses behind and enjoy the beautiful scenery.
- Try out something new this September! This could simply be going to a movie with friends or starting a bowling league. You can do this alone or with friends and make some memories you will never forget.
You don't have to just do these things during the month of September, but it is always a right way to start off a new month and new season. Overall, enjoy yourself and remember to live in the moment as much as possible. Which one of these fun things are you excited to try out?

The Truth Quest Podcast Episode #2 – The Truth About Abortion – What About the Baby?
Mandatory consideration for the unborn . . . . .
Mandatory waiting periods are perfectly acceptable for gun purchases but, when it comes to aborting an unborn baby, they are described as barbaric and a violation of women's constitutional rights. In American, obtaining a conceal-and-carry permit takes months but a woman can abort her child on demand.
This cause will explore legal methods at the state level to insure that mothers considering an abortion are fully informed and, at the very least, require them to reaffirm their decision. It will focus on helping the mother make an educated decision rather than an emotional one or one of convenience.
Some of the methods currently employed include:
- Mandatory waiting period after the mother has made contact with a clinic.
- Mandatory ultrasounds.
- Mandatory counseling to discuss other options such as adoption.
- Mandatory watching of an abortion procedure.
- Mandatory education of the fetal development and gestational age.
In our hyper-politically correct society, any mention of restrictions on abortions is met with calls of unconstitutionality, "War on Women", and "anti-choice"! It's time that conservatives and libertarians call BS on the inane name-calling.
Americans are essentially split 50-50 pro-life vs. pro-abortion yet pro-lifers are constantly berated by the media and the pro-abortion lobby over our position on the issue. In the meantime, we've had over 55 million abortions performed since Roe v. Wade. Keep in mind, there are only 310 million people in America right now! That means we have aborted just under 20% of the current population. How can any truth-seeking, right-minded person justify this?
Most of the pro-abortion arguments are centered on the mother's rights. It's time that the baby's rights be put front-and-center. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. What rights does the baby have? Doesn't the state have an obligation to protect the baby? At least try to prevent its death? Isn't that what government is for?

- The Most Important Question About Abortion – PragerU
- Senator James Lankford 2016 floor speech discussing the protests of the humane treatment of animals while ignoring Prevent Parenthood's selling of aborted baby parts.
