Guest guest Posted May 8, 2002 Report Share Posted May 8, 2002 Hi, Found this at: http://www.asthmaassistant.com/glossary.html Brittle asthma: This is a rare form of asthma where people get little or no warning of an asthma attack. They can go from being perfectly well to having a severe life-threatening attack in the space of a few minutes. - Re: a big hello what is brittle asthma?

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2002 Report Share Posted May 9, 2002 Yes I have had asthma for years. My very first attack was of the brittle form. And since then, several of my attacks have been of this type. The last of which was about 2 1/2 months ago. I walked outside to put my granddaughter on the school bus. When I got back inside, I tightened up and couldn't even speak. Luckily a quick phone call to my DIL and she had the squad on the way. I wasn't able to even speak to her, just dialed and banged the phone. Yes, it comes right now. Very scary. I've been on a vent twice and close a couple other times. Asthma is no game. Control if so very important on a daily basis and still you can go down with no warning Char --- Anneliese wrote: > Charlotte, are you not the one who has had asthma > for many years like me ? > Have you had this type of asthma during all those > years ? > Anneliese > Re: a big hello > > > > > > what is brittle asthma?
