I, too, spent my childhood playing outside. And I was never on antibiotics.
At 30 I would have told you I was in perfect health. No allergies or asthma or anything remotely like that. Then one day my immune system got out of whack and develop chronic urticaria. (Thankfully modern medicine makes it a minor issue).
My childhood didn't retroactively change during that interval. Sometimes you're lucky. And sometimes your luck suddenly runs out.
- dvtv75 10y agoI am the same. Always outside, lived on a farm for a few years, lived in the city. No problems with any allergies, and then, about 15 years ago, I worked in a store with photochemistry, but no ventilation. I was diagnosed with asthma some months later. I was pre-disposed to it, though. Recently, I developed a new allergy to certain types of grass. Now I end up with white dots in my eyes, and a lot of pain.
