Woke up this morning and went into an asthma flair, which has aggravated my back pain
by ten fold, My asthma doc I was seeing moved outta this state and well have to wait til next week
to see the new doc. Had bloodwork done on Tuesday and arm still hurts from that, bloodwork
every two months you'd think I'd be used to it by now..
But this mornings asthma flair has my back in way so much pain and I'm so very tired, having a
hard time getting any housework done and it still hurts some to breathe in air..Please make
this go away..
Thank you for letting me go on and on, Hope y'all are having a better day than me..
Good luck on that trip Pete, May the lure (force) be with you, hehe ouch don't make me laugh...

(((((((((Char)))))))))) Sorry you're having such a rough day! I wish there was something more I could do to help, you always help me to feel better when I'm having a bad day! Don't worry about
the housework today, it can wait a day, until you are feeling better. Or better yet, get that daughter of yours to give you a hand today! Take it easy if you can. Sending you lots of hugs.

Char, Is your asthma allergy related? Did you know when we have elevated histamine levels we have much more pain because histamine cells have "pain memory". So increase in histamine cells .....increase in pain.....rx....allergy meds have been found to help.
My Dr. put me on allergy med every 6 hours to combat this from being so severe.
Our bodies are so strange.... Ever notice increased pain spring and fall.......allergy season at its worst.
Prayers to all, Andrea

I get occasional flare ups with my asthma too, its no fun. Though moving to FL has helped a lot. Have you considered seeing a pulmonologist? (sp) I know thats where I was referred on to at one point when my asthma was bad when I lived in Ga. Either way, stck your head in the freezer, you know the tricks I am sure. Hope you feel better..... Ice Cream cures all!

I saw my Asthma Doctor today and he put me back on Singulair, Hopefully this will help with my allergies
as it's effecting my breathing, my peak flows have been down 310 in the doctors office and I'm usually 400,
I just hope I don't have to get put on steroids, I can only tolerate Prednisone...
anyways Soft Hugz to everyone...I'm going take the day off tomorrow, so see ya back on Friday.....

Aw, Char, I hope the new meds help & you don't have to be put on steroids! I just got off prednisone. I was only on it a month, but it was just awful! I have come to the conclusion that steroids are "evil."
Enjoy your day off tomorrow!
