   <p>Hi jules70 and thanks for your post. We appreciate that you have a good understanding of your condition and its triggers. Carrying your metered dose inhaler, the &#39;puffer&#39;, is the best prevention you can provide. Keep up the good work! Leon (site moderator)</p>

   <p>My asthma can come on with a lot of different things like you. It&#39;s hard to live with your asthma like that. If I get sick it gets me a bit worse off than a lot of smells. For me I have to watch that it is not an allergy that&#39;s done it cos I have allergies for my asthma like you and also I have my list of other allergies including the allergy to coconut that doesn&#39;t help my breathing so yeah that&#39;s when it gets hard to know which it is if i&#39;ve been round something that may have been another type of allergy. I guess being older and probably having worse asthma that me would the food allergies to you just feel like they were your asthma?</p>

   <p>Hi Jules70, <br> I am the same way. My biggest problem is candles and air fresheners. This is extremely hard, because I worked at an elementary school and am in and out of classrooms all day. Some teachers love their plug-ins and it gives me instant headaches.</p>
