Guest guest Posted February 6, 2005 Report Share Posted February 6, 2005 Hi again June, I truly think its your asthma that is the problem, the bronch won,t be helping, but that I am pretty sure isn,t the culprit. I think your asthma hasn,t been treated correctly, and the things that trigger it, must be definately identified. You do get up the gunk, and it wouldn,t come up so good, if it was that that was causing your asthma. I think besides the triggers etc, they also need to identify what kind of asthma you have, some are much more prone to allergy reactors, some don,t have of the triggers that others do. There are several( many types of asthma). Because you have bronch and can cough up gunk, yet get really tight airwaves, that you cannot breathe at all, speaks for itself in a way. Also the fact that the magnesium drip heped so much, shows its possible that it isn,t just the bronch, When you begin to respond to the magnesium IV, they needed to slow it down, when given too fast, it can cause major problems, not just rapid heart rate, so if you do have it again, remind the docs it helped but had to be stopped even though you were responding, that your heart rate was a problem, they will make sure they give it to you slower, Glad to hear you slept well, I feel terribly sleep deprived at the moment, its just far too hot and humid here to sleep, and asthma has been really bad too, but it is controlled, except when I need sleep, breathlessness wakes me, if indeed I do get a few winks. It really is hot and humid, wet and sticky all the time, and feels like there isn,t a breath of air anywhere at all. Must go have a really big day tomorrow, with the group, the fellow I am caring for in his home is coming out of hospital tomorrow,( today). I have those 2 people ( couple) that attempted suicide, ( one tried again Friday night) I have them both in my care tomorrow. I also have 2 meetings in borough 40 minutes away to attempt to get to. Have just sent apology in case I don,t get to the meetings, but I have to make them realise that people need to come first, then the protocols and chat. Keep well, keep really well, Hugs, Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
