Re: OT-----leaving for vacation---asthma really wants to start up

[Guest guest]

Hi Kay,

I hope your asthma stays under control and you have a great vacation!

I'm currently on Vent and pred as well, and dreading the cold going around my

house with sheer terror...a cold triggered my severe 2-mo-long battle with

asthmatic bronchitis.

course, my asthma wants to get in the way, I am having problems more than my

usual. Some of my symptoms could be because I am so EXCITED and ready to cruise

into the sunset. I am taking ventolin and it just does not seem to be doing the

trick. In addition to taking 10mg of prednisone a day.

as I can, I'm sure there will be a lot of dancing and then sighting seeing, and

naturally I don't want to have to worry about my crappy asthma. I feel like a

walking pharmacy. I think I have every medication for my asthma packed.
