   Severe asthma new here (Asthma board)

26th February 2004
Welcome Sandra,

These boards are great and very helpful. Sounds like you're on a lot of meds. It gets hard to keep track sometimes, doesn't it. I'm on Advair 500/50, Singulair, Allegra, Atrovent and Albuterol as needed. I also have Rhinocort when I feel I need it. And I take stuff for my blood pressure and cholesterol, as well as motrin quite a few times per week for headaches. And right now I'm on prednisone for 2 weeks. And of course the nebulizer, but I only use that when I get bronchitis, every few months. Someone suggested to me today that I take way too much medicine and that I should see a homepathic doctor and detoxify and build up my immune system. I think I'm too scared to do that. I don't need to go in the hospital. Sorry, I don't have any suggestions for you, but wanted to let you know that you're not alone. There's quite a few of us out there suffering.

Thanks for the idea about the homepathic doctor, a few of my friend are starting to suggest that. I know my immune sytem is not funtioning well. I seem to catch everything. Probalbly has to do a lot with the steroids, but can't seem to get off of them without crashing again and then I have to start all over. My neb machine and me are really close friends, thining about giving it a name lol. Thanks again and I hope things are getting better for you., Sandra
