Guest guest Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 So sorry to hear that Colleen! When the month is up, just jump back in to the groove! Hello Well I haven't been around much lately. Took a few weeks off after my Dobe got sick, then two more weeks for my plantar fasciitis and then get this...I got hit AGAIN! 10 car accidents. Nope that's not a typo 10!! Eekgads!!! Thankfully it was somewhat minor but because I already have chronic problems I'll be out of commission working out for at least a month...WAH!!! Hope everyone else is doing ok! Just thought I'd check in as I'm missing my Taebo adrenline rush these days!!

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Hi, my name is Chip and I'm new to this group. I have been a life long asthmatic with many, many hospitalisations and almost every drug under the sun! I did have a short reprieve with only minor attacks for about 20 years but now it's back! Well and truly back! I also have Aspergillosis which appears to be in remission at the moment, and bronchiectasis which doesn't bother me too much yet. It is asthma that is causing some concern now and I will admit I've ignored it for several years, fighting aspergillosis took much of my time and effort. At present my breathing resembles a bag of nails in a metal bucket on the floor of an old steam train! I self nebulise several times a day, I'm on 30mgs of prednisolone at present alone with Seretide and other assorted medical sweeties. Up until about 3 years ago I was a lecturer in science & music. Unfortunately one cannot lecturer if one cannot get enough breath to speak! So I was kindly let go from my job, and flung out the door via shirt collar and pants! Since then I have been heavily involved in researching aspergillosis and investigating wet sputum for clearer patient self identification purposes. But now it is once more my old asthma friend that has returned to haunt me, so I feel it's time I reacquainted myself with the rusty pipe syndrome called asthma! I am married, male, old and live in Britain's big toe, otherwise known as Cornwall. I hope I may be able to learn more from this site as I don't intend allowing the asthma to beat me, I have a wife for that! Cheers, Mike (Chip) Chapman Cornwall.
