I have intermittent asthma. I usually manage my symptoms (wheezing during the pollen season) with antihistamines and sometimes the Ventolin inhaler. I had an attack about a month ago and the last time before that was 10 years ago. For the most recent attack, I was prescribed Deltacortril for five days, and they certainly sorted the problem. The doctor also suggested I take a preventive inhaler to keep the asthma at bay. However, I read on the internet that the preventive inhaler which...
i suffer from seasonal allergies & it’s been bad especially in NYC ... my doctor 🥼 gave me a cortisone shot on the buttocks to i believe reduce my allergies symptoms & told me i won’t have to do it again till next month... my question is , if the cortisone shot weakens the immune system was it a smart decision to trust my doctor while the corona virus is out & around my state & actually my county ... i can’t imagine why he wouldn’t take that into consideration & discuss...
Usually one shot doesn't do enough to weaken your immune system. The dosage is too small and it's only a one time thing. If you were to get shots frequently and on a regular basis, it would have more of an effect on the strength of your immune system and your doctor would be required to let you know. But in an otherwise healthy individual with only one shot, you should be in the clear. This is just what my doctor told me. I'm no doctor. If you to be super thorough, call your doctors office...
This is going to be the "unpopular" opinion, but it is one more should consider. You will not eliminate disease with a paper mask. You cannot prevent a future asthma attack by stockpiling medication. The virus takes about two weeks to become apparent and it will definitely have killed you within the month if it is going to be your cause of death. Do what you've always done, but do it better. Be clean. Be aware of your condition. Be considerate of those around you. Most of all, be rational.
I’ve had a water heater leak… I’m living with open walls, dusty cement floors and attempting to find estimates and repairs… for over a month now. Ive purchased an air purifier to help with my asthma. I have it in my bedroom. is there anything else you can recommend? thanks,
As my experience, Foderma eczema serum truly had helped with my eczema flare-up. I also decided to enroll in the auto shop as well. Still not able to find in my local stores. I would definitely recommend Foderma to a friend or family member.
Sunrise = promise of a new day. I was sitting on the porch with a lady 15 years my elder on Beaver Island. She saw bright orange coming through the woods and asked if I could run down to the lake and get a picture for her. I did. I ran as much as I could. I got there just in time. I got lucky with the ducks. Lol. The picture was taken a month ago, so my allergies were in effect. I was grateful I could make the hike quickly. And made her smile! She posted it on Facebook. My boy sealed the...

After having asthma literally since the day I was born, having it uncontrolled for 33 years and after having been put on a ventilator and having my heart stop for 7 minutes with my last attack my Dr put me on Nucala and to say it has been life changing is completely true. I was using two inhalers in a month and now I have had the same inhaler for about 6 months. I hardly ever have to use it anymore. I am so beyond thankful for the advancements they have made with asthma. There has not been...
I have been on Xolair for about 12 years. Now, suddenly the doctor's office that was giving me the shots will no long give them because Medicare will not continue to pay for it. This was NOT the doctor who put me on Xolair but he also will not continue to give me the injection. I went to his office and they were very short with me and said they will not give me the shots and I sent a letter to the doctor and received a note from his nurse but no answer from him. He only sees me once a year.
