BBdgh started the topic Losing sense of taste and smell in the forum Symptoms 6 hours, 36 minutes ago

I discovered starting last Dec that some of my favorite foods weren’t tasting as good as they use to and my husband would comment on a bad odor from garbage disposal and I couldn’t smell it. My doctors say that with my chronic sinusitis and my asthma this is a common thing. So now I’m trying to learn what can I taste and appreciate now. Has…

It’s the persistent productive cough that makes everyone think you have a cold or something contagious. I find I have to tell people about my asthma so they don’t get angry that I’m exposing them to something.
My husband is also concerned when he hears me cough, he thinks I need to do something more than I am.

Try taking the prednisone in the am, that helps me. Also, if you don’t have sensitivity to milk, graham crackers and milk at night can help.

Hi Jacquemac1,

I don’t have itching with ragweed, just lots of sneezing, and an asthma attack.

The annoying thing about allergies and asthma is that they can change at any time. So, what may not have bothered you last year can bother you this year.

I have had a really tough time with Sage this fall, and haven’t before now. These bodies…

I’m so glad! Doctors can be your best ally. Especially when you understand what they are saying and know you are on the same page.
Keep up the good work!

You are normal going through the asthma denial phase. That’s something many of us asthmatics go through. That’s a perfect example of “when you learn better, you do better.” I’m now in that phase of looking for a new home. The house I looked at today was a really nice asthma friendly home. The problem is it will stretch me to the high end of my…

18 years ago during my asthma denial years I moved into my current house. Packing and moving from my old home involved pulling out things covered in years of dust from storage. I wheezed for several days, had a provider suggest I needed a rescue inhaler (which I turned down) and left me exhausted during a time I needed my energy. Now I know I…

The only reason why I have asthma is because I had pertussis, also known as whooping cough. I never before had asthma until then. It goes from a dry cough to productiveness, so be very careful and stay hydrated. Another thing that really helps with keeping moisture in the air and don’t letting your arrogant too dry, especially during productive t…

Asthalin Inhaler should be discontinued immediately and alternative therapy instituted. It should be recognized that paradoxical bronchospasm, when associated with inhaled formulations, frequently occurs with the first use of a new canister.

They certainly are nice to have around. Another neat thing is you can probably get one today for a fraction of the cost. Although it certainly seems you made a great investment. John. Author Site Moderator.
