How has asthma affected my life? Do I belong here?

I came upon this site when I was looking for info about handheld nebulizers. As I read the posts, I began to mull over the role asthma had played in my life. It started when I was 15. I was told not to mow the yard, see an allergist, have tests, and was given chlor-trimeton.

I cared for an asthmatic child from infancy to adulthood. In the meantime, we both had been given rescue inhalers. I have various kinds of triggers, most of which I've learned to avoid. At age 70, asthmatic bronchitis has been my problem. Learning so much here.

Thanks, K
