Adult diagnosed Asthma

Mine is brough on by mold and dust.  Which is stuff you can't really get away from.  I have been able to keep it pretty well in check the last couple of years though, until the last month or so, and it had been months since I needed an inhaler, so when I needed one, I used the primatene mist (which I also hate).  Turns out after a month of using that thing daily, I developed bronchitis, so I had to get the breathing treatments and everything (that we all love) and am finally starting to breath.  Asthma can be a really scarey thing to go through on your own, not to mention expensive.  I remember when I got diagnosed, I just cried.  But what doesn't kill you makes you stronger!  Now I spend more time trying to calm my husband down, if he hears me weeze, he wants to rush me to the DR. I just hope my son never has to go through it.

i was diadnosed for asthma when i was 17 too. i used to have allergies during summer and spring because of flowers but it became so opvious when i entered the medicine school in the dissecting room the smell was over peared. i started my treatment with ventoline inhalors (sulbutamol) but now i take sulbutamol and corticosteroids too.

 

sometimes i feel i don't wanna take my medicine anymore

 

sulbutamole every 4 hours means 6 times per day and corticosteroids twice aday that means i take inhalors 8 times per day that made my life misreble. i once decided to stop all those medications and now i take only sulbutamol when need to but not regular, i know this is wrong and this made my situation worse but i couldn't stand all those medications anymore. people also makes me feel strange i always disturbe them (not to smoke in front of me, no perfumes plz.... and so on....)

 

iam trying to have a group therapy through this site

 

i wish people here could help

 

oh by the way iam 19 now
