Re: Asthma in the covered wagon days

[Guest guest]

As bad as my sister's asthma got, my parents never took her to the ER and she

never went herself, no matter how bad it got.  She would go to the doc's office

the next morning and when she was young, there really wasn't much more he could

do for her.  I do remember taking a Tedral twice when I had attacks when I was

in Elementary school.  I would use my sister's nasty asthma nefrin also when I

was having a mild attack. 

 

Mother would put water on to boil, and then cut off the fire and form a " tent "

for my sister to breathe in.  That is similar to the bath steam room.  There

wasn't much more that could be done back then.

 

I am so thankful for the progress made in the treatment and for xolair

especially.

I took Tedral too. UGH! The side effects were almost as bad as

prednisone. My doctor does not prescribe it anymore. The liquid form

was yellow and tasted like licorice.

I also took a drug called Quadranal which is a combination product of

these drugs:

ephedrine hydrochloride; phenobarbital; potassium iodide; theophylline

http://www.onlinedr ugtest.info/ generic-quadrina l-information. html

I still vividly remember the late 1950's when I was around 5 years

old. My asthma would get so bad that there was nothing my mother could

do but fill the bathroom full of steam and hold me in her arms till

the valium & Tedral took effect. To this day I don't know why they

didn't take me to the ER.

My doctor said that I was not old enough to use my dad's Asthma

Nefrin squeeze bottle neb but I did anyway. When you have to breathe,

you have to breathe.

My sister had asthma when we were young and was in the hospital in a tent.  I

did not have problems as long as I was in our area.  When I moved to Mankato,

MN I had problems but no one could figure out my problem.  Then I moved to

Chicago and really started to have problems and no one could figure out the

problem until I went to a clinic and the doctor advised me to go to a lung

specialist and now I am on Xolair and doing somewhere between ok and well.

I used Quadranal too. It was a major help to me at the time because it

really worked well for me. But it screwed up my thyroid because of the

potassium iodide. I had to switch to another medicine called Veraquad.

I think I should mention that my sister was born in 1940 and had asthma from the

time she was two months old.  I was two years old.  We were teenagers during the

50's and we both got married in the 60's.  In her early 20's she began going to

an allergist and that is also when the doctor began giving her other meds to

treat her asthma.  My asthma kicked in in 1986 during an extremely heavy

mold/mountain cedar season.

 

Glad you are doing better, Sr. .  I'm glad for the xolair.
