Hello  I notice there are alot of young people in here worried about athsma. First off, if you are having problems breathing, feeling any pain, or in any way think you may have athsma tell a parent and get to the doctor right away. Some days you may be able to control it with out medication but at some point you are going to end up in the emergency room because of an athsma attack.
BUT that being said, athsma can be taken care of pretty easy with the right medications. Inhailors, nebulizers, pills....There are MANY different things that you can do to help control it. Your doctor can work with you to find the perfect combination.
So please talk to your parents and get to the doctor. To the girl who says her father isn't wealthy so he can't do much about it..Yes..he can. Even if it is by taking you to the ER and having them give you treatments there, while you are there your father can ask for athsma medicine and have it bills onto the hospital bill. That will give you a months supply of medication right there without having to pay for it at that second. But also if your father will get medical insurance then you can go to the doctor and get prescriptions for fairly cheap.
I am 22 yrs old and live with athsma. I'll admit..Its not fun and sometimes it's painful but when I take my medications like I am supposed to I rarely have problems. Really, the only time I do have problems with it is when I have a cold. Then my athsma acts up. I normally just go straight to the hospital (it isn't scary and its not because im fixing to die or anything) get a breathing treatment and a pack of steriods and it fixes me right up. Then I don't have another breathing problem for MONTHS. I had extremely bad athsma when I was young. And really bad allergies to. I was allergic to everything and would blow up like a balloon if I even looked at dairy products but now milk is my FAVORIRE drink. So don't worry..just because you have athsma now does not mean it will always affect you. And PLEASE don't be scared guys. Its perfectly ok but do take it seriously and let your parent's know that you need to be seen by a doctor. |
