Guest guest Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 Hi, You apparently don't have drug coverage health insurance. Singulair is expensive but for me it was a wonder drug. It brought me from uncontrolled asthma to controlled asthma. So consider that when deciding to or not to take it.

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 oh dear, i had a panic attack last night, and i don't ever get them (well, i did last year when i was on the depo provera jabs (for contraception, nothing to do with asthma!) but they went away once the jab left my system - perhaps some people are sensitive to medications. i've been on singulair for 5 days. i have a slight headache, and that one panic attack. i read somewhere that water retention and weight gain might be a side effect but it seems to be the opposite for me, i have lost a bit of my water retention (i get a lot of it) and taking singulair seems to work in the same way as taking a water tablet works for my gran, lol! it's a shame you have to take it at night, i'd rather have the active bladder during the day, and get a good night's sleep, maybe that's what causes the headaches, interrupted sleep. on the asthma front, i'm taking my reliever less often, and i haven't needed any antihistamine since i started taking it, it's my hayfever season and i was taking an antihistamine every day for 3 weeks before i started on the singulair. i had an attack at work on monday, that was caused by a customer with strong perfume. it's odd that singulair should work so well for my asthma which would be considered mild nowadays, when it didn't work for severe asthma, what a shame :-( i'm sorry your asthma is so bad emily. mine used to be, i don't know what changed, apart from my staying away from the animals i'm allergic to. my parents had animals and i did when i first had my own flat. i also have to stay away from cigarette smoke. if i am in a room where there's smoke, or somebody smokes at the bus stop, or in the school playground etc. i have to move away straight away. it's affected my social life, there aren't any non-smoking pubs or nightclubs, but at least i don't go into hospital any more. if i can cope with the headaches and i don't have too many panic attacks i think i will stay on the singulair until the pack of 28 runs out, then i see my doctor again. i'm in england so i buy a certificate for around £90 a year and then don't have to pay anything for my prescriptions. shaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 spinal bifida " spinal bifida " !?!?!?? oh my god,what is that hell? Immm,it looks like somany diseases in the world! Spinal bifida happens when the fetus is first conceived. It's where the spine doesn't develop right. In my son's case he was born with an open back. The spinal cord is very important part of the body it controls everything. For my son he has to walk with a walker when he's not having brain issues. He's also got problem with his bowels and bladder. He can't totally empty his bladder on his own and he needs medicine for his bowels to come out. When he steps on glass orrocks he can't feel it an it'salso given him other diagnoses as well. HUGS!!!
