ladyscorp2006 Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 Yeah I have it really bad, and I don't use an inhailer(sp?). So when I have an attack there's nothng I can do about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Crimson Spider Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 I do. Or atleast they call it that. I would call it more of a chronic bronchitest than asthma. Well, my lungs get weaker and weaker the more I use them. Everyone who is like: work out more! Your lungs will get stronger! Well, they're wrong. My lungs do not get stronger. Infact, they get weaker and weaker until they eventually can't do a thing. Then I have to stop working out for about a month or so. Well, I would take my puffer more if it didn't have this bad side-effect. I guess Albuteral was not made for my system. You see, after I take it it makes me shake constantly. You know like when you are really cold? Like that. No one knows why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/B][/QUOTE] man, I have that one too. I hate it! it makes me shake for like three hours non-stop. I have Flovent too, but lately it hasnt been working for me at all, so now Ive been stuck suffering either way, shaking, or just not breathing well. anyways, yeah, I it have really bad. Ive had since...like I was six. but, one good thing is that my older brother has grown out of it so I'm hoping I will too. acording to my asthma doctor though, aparently my asthma has actually been better this summer-though I didnt notice. I'm still waiting for my once a year trip to the ER because of it. but, if I make it to New-Years without one, I will be having a celebration!! at least now I'm not on five different inhailers, now I'm back to three, I guess that Clairinex pill is a good one for both allergies and asthma. ~Aurora Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oji ryu Posted August 20, 2003 Author Share Posted August 20, 2003 Dayday you don't want Asthma.I thought I was lucky to have but it I went through ******* hell.When I went to the hospital every 5 minutes they'd suck my blood out.Asthma feels like you can't even breathe you're like a fish out of water,Trust me you don't want it.:flaming: :mad: :angry2: :angry3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brasil Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by dayday [/i] [B]I'd want it. I could get out of gym. [/B][/QUOTE] No, dayday. You DON'T want asthma. It sucks. I had a horrid case of it back when I was younger. It's not beneficial at all, and most schools don't excuse you from gym just for it. You might get excused from running the mile. That's it. You still are required to take gym. Wanting a bronchial condition just to avoid something is a horrid thing to do. I suppose, then, you'd want M.S. or Parkinson's so you wouldn't have to do anything hard? --- I have hazy memories of an inhaler machine at the pediatrician. Luckily, I grew out of my asthma. I remember a time down the shore last year. I was able to run 7 blocks without getting winded. It was way cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron Samedi Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 ladyscorp2006...... that is probably one of the stupidest things to do. WHy don't you tak an inhaler. Pretty dumd, unless you have a definitive reason for not taking it. I have asthma, but not really bad. It is awful, especially when you are ccoughing up gunk. *Gross*. What is this medication you guys are on about?> I have Ventolin and Becotide, maybe that is coz i live in Australia though..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lea Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 0.0 they wouldnt let me get out of the mile, even though i have asthma.... and yeah, it does feel like your a fish out of water!! and when after you have a really bad attack, you have a really bad headach (it feels like your heart moved to where your brain is) and somtimes you throw up....X.X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pantalaimon Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 I feel very sorry for u guys who have asthma but i heard the best way to get over it is an excersise regime and breathing excersises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/B][/QUOTE] I don't use an inhaler because my insurence doesn't pay for it. And when I do take the albuteral it doesn't even work. I still take gym, I even run track in hopes to grow out of it, but I can't do to much. So basicall I'm fine as long as I don't push myself to hard.

animeforever105 Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 I don't have asthma but members in my family do. I wondered what it felt like when they had an attack.My friend who has asthma told me to take one of those little straws you get on juice boxes and caprisuns and breathe through that all day. I tried to and it was really hard.I feel really bad for those who have asthma and have to go through with that. Oh yeah,my dog has asthma. It's really sad.When she gets really excited she'll have an attack and we have to pet her and calm her down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron Samedi Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 ladyscorp2006. How much do your inhalers cost? Mine are relatively cheap..... What is albuterol (sp?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyscorp2006 Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 I don't know what the inhaler cost, or what Albuterol is really. I think it's supposed to expand your air passages so you can breath easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimmFang Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 I used to have it real bad but I think I am growing out of it or one of my grandfathers remedies actually work. Ever since I started taking this Coral Calcium my Asthma hasn't surfaced for at least 5 months now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 [size=1]The closest thing I've had to asthma was geting very sick my sophomore year. I was "officially" diagnosed with pneumonia, had some form of bronchitis for a week or two, and (our family nurse says) mono for some time after that. The worst couple weeks were right after Thanksgiving/early December. I couldn't walk up to my second-floor classes without getting out-of-breath, and well...it was pretty scary. I couldn't [i]breathe[/i]--and that's not something I'd ever thought I'd have problems with. I mean...people always say you take air for granted, but what else would you do with it! Ergh. My doctor gave me an inhaler, which I was supposed to use twice a day or something. I don't really remember.. But, yeah. The "not being able to breathe" thing was blissfully temporary.

Boo Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 I have astma... First time i got a real big attack was with a piyama (sp?) party at one of my friends birthdays. Didnt know i had Astma so it was damn scary to just not be able to breath. And my gym teacher is an arshole and he doesnt care a [b]f[/b] that some people have astma so they are less capable of easily breathing than others. And still i have to run 2.3 Kilometer. So ehm... Dayday. If i could decide bout it you really can have my astma I have medicines like inhaler. Emergancy one and a preventing one. Friend of mine has discs of some sort.

Hacker Kite Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 I know what you guys are talking about I've had it practically all my life and it was a pain in the ***!!

But i've been down the rode that Crimson Spider has mentioned!! thankx got to run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Original Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 I had ashma pretty bad when I was younger. I was even sent to the hospital when it double-teamed me with pnemonia. Did you guys' doctors say ashma was incurable? Mine did, and I flat out didn't believe him, and didn't take any medication the day after I returned from the hospital (even though I was told to by my parents). A bit risky, yes, but I wanted to test it. Strangely enough, to this day, I have never had another problem with it. I can run and do other physical stuff for as long as I want; I never have attacks anymore. So if there are any more out there that think it's incurable, I think you just grow out of it as you grow older. As an added bonus, my height has shot up. Taking all that medication really stunted my growth when I was tounger (7th grade at 80 pounds and 4"4), but about 6 months after i stopped the meds, I've gained nearly a third my previous height and wheight.

Fall Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 I had asthma when I was young. I grew out of it when I was about four, though recently I've been suffering alot of coughing attacks with colds, flu, and headaches. The doctor has just said I've got a mild re-occurance of asthma. I have a puffer, but hardly use it. It doesn't help me at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfbaden6 Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 I have asthma and it sucks. when i was a lot younger, i had it so bad, i couldn't run a 100 feet without having to stop for my inhaler. I also had to take my nebulizer. It's a lot better now except for humid days. then it's horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
