Somewhere during the day Monday someone snuck up on me and turned on some serious post nasal drip. My throat is raw and worst of all it wants to settle in my chest I think. My peak flows are stuck in the yellows...but they are at least hovering around the same numbers. sorry for whining but I feel miserable and have no appetite or energy. I hate chest colds.

Guest guest Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Thanks Cheryl. I have finally acknowledged that my ventolin is not going to be enough to help me kick this so I called for a doctor appointment this morning. My peak flows are running low for me and it seems that all the ventolin is doing is keeping them from falling any lower. Last night I could hardly sleep so I stayed home from work this morning..im running what is technically a low grade fever for me (98.7) athough its not considered a fever. I normally run 96 something. Anyway I have an appointment at 6pm tonight..which is fine by me. It didnt help that last night we had a severe thunderstorm and the weather radio was going off at least once/twice an hour almost the entire night. Thats what happens I guess when you live on the border of 2 states! When we did get the storm finally, we could see lightning and hear thunder at least 45 minutes before it actually got here.

Guest guest Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Ok..Im home from the doc appt. Turns out I am just really tight...no bronchitis YET, but he did give me some antibiotics to take prophylactically so I dont get it. I really liked this guy. He is a PA, but he put a lot of weight into what I told him and he came out and said he does not put much faith in Ox sats unless they are already tanking. He took a listen and got a good dose of my barking cough with me just breathing regularly. Said I was wheezing somewhat and brought a nebulizer out. He said after the neb treatment he would make a decision about a shot of salumedrol or not. I wasnt wheezing anymore afterwards, but I still had some funky lung sounds so he gave me the shot. No oral meds though outside of Mucinex and doxycycline. I feel much better already...and can wander around and have a conversation without getting into a coughing fit. He also said I am his 3rd asthmatic to come in today and end up needing a shot...that he doesnt usually have to give 3 in one day...the fact that we had a bad storm last night and another one while we were in the clinic tonight might have something to do with it.

Guest guest Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 CIndy its already hot & humid here...it was 98 yesterday @ 6pm. That was the first time I had been outside since um...Wednesday @ noon..what a shock. In the hour while I was in the clinic we had a storm move through and it dropped the temperature to 72. Today its supposed to be 100. I am going to give work a shot today although Im interested in the fact that my peak flows which were almost normal after the neb & shot last night are back down to about 400 again. It might take a few days for them to stay where they are supposed to be though I guess. This is really the first time the asthma kicked in first before the actual infection did. When I blow my nose there is no color...and I have yet to cough anything up...Im really glad I listened to my body this time because I was tighter than I even thought I was. > > Ann, I live three blocks from the Tennessee-Virginia state line on the Tennessee side.

Guest guest Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 Hi all,I'm not in the ER yet. My dr gave me a prescription for pred last month when I had some minor problems. He said fill it if my peak flows dropped into the low 300s for more than a couple of days. My personal best is between 450 to 500. I've been blowing 300 to 350 (or 70% to 80%) the past two days and barely got 320 a few minutes ago. I have gotten up to 400 but that's right after a neb treatment and when I'm not as tight as I am now. I'm wheezing a little bit but I'm mostly tight. I'm going to fill the pred script and go from there because my nebulizer isn't helping much. I think my dr anticipated the problems with the humidity here, but I didn't know the pine sol would set me off as badly as it did yesterday.In answer to another post about heat and humidity, the heat does not bother me as much as the combination of heat and humidity. Also, when it's hot for several days and ozone builds up, it can be a problem for some asthmatics, so heed ozone warnings and stay inside as much as possible.To: asthma Sent: Wednesday, June 24, 2009 11:37:40 AMSubject: Re: Re: blah Me too.

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 I was starting to finally feel better...and then along came Code Orange Air Quality. It was 102 degrees and bad air quality to boot. I think I am pretty sure I also have an ear infection now. Clear fluid from my ear along with hearing the ocean without putting a shell to my ear tells me Im right. So...Ann is miserable again today. IF I can only make it till Tuesday...I have a dr appointment that I so wisely scheduled at the beginning fo the month before I knew Id need more than just a renewed script. Oh..and the most wonderful thing of all about this?? IM STILL taking antibiotics AND 2400mg/day of mucinex...Grrrrrrrrrr. It rained here last night...which was kinda funny b/c our neighbor was getting ready to illegally burn a whole boatload of stuff...even had it soaked in gasoline. It rained so hard it flooded our patio in 2 minutes...so much for burning...lol. It only lasted about 20-25 minutes. I so hope it rains all day tomorrow....although its not forecast to. Its 96 @ 845pm. Ann Paying hundreds for more mobile than you need? Take a Peek at the answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 It hit 86 here today, but had another freaky rainstorm this afternoon. They reported on the news tonight that Denver has gotten more rain just in June than the whole yearly average! I guess it started raining before we came so the humidity levels would build and I would feel at home. Wonder if it is going to stop before I go home? ROFL!
