cough that won't stop
That's fantastic news. Mold is SO dangerous as you know, I'm so glad you had the ability to take care of it. And it worked! You must be so relieved. How long ago did you have the remediation done, and when did you start feeling better? Just curious. I used to live in a place with mold (not under my control), and within a week the positive changes in my health were so obvious. Wishing you continued progress! -Melissa, team member the remediation started on Oct. 6, but they couldn't come the next day. They picked back up on Oct. 8 and on the 9th I started noticing that my cough was better. On the 10th they installed the dehumidifier in the crawl space. As of today, the cough is much better, but I still have a bit of trouble with singing/vocal chords. I see the neurologist soon so maybe they can give me some guidance.
Sudden coughing attack where I can barely catch my breath. Nebulizer and inhalers help calm me down. But I can clear a room very quickly.
That's a shame. I wish people would offer concern or support instead of running away like you're contagious. 🙁 I'm glad your meds help, though. -Melissa, team member yes mam that's scarey . An it's like no one understands unless they been there . .. when them attacks happen makes u feel better iif someone's just there .. I go immediately into the nose breathing in an out the mouth purged lips that helps me best
A reaction to aspirin, after being tested a few months before. Ended up in ER via ambulance.
Thanks for sharing! How scary!! Thank goodness you called 911 and were able to get to the ER. -Lauren (team member) So you were tested for aspirin reactions and it came back negative? I'm so glad you're OK. -Melissa, team member
Cough that won't allow a breath in, once I couldn't even use my inhaler. Put me in the hospital for 3 days. Thought I was dying before I called 911.
this is mine too. The moment I couldn't breathe in or out. I was lucky enough to be in hospital at the time, having my worst asthma attack. Wouldn't wish that on anyone. My goodness, this sounds so scary. I'm glad to hear that you immediately called 911. How long was the recovery from this incident? -Lauren (Team member)
