Asthma
      08/01/2009 14:15

Hi All

After nearly a year of coughing and spluttering I was finally diagnosed with Asthma yesterday. I have been prescribed a brown preventer inhaler to use in the morning and evening and a blue reliever inhaler to use when I need to. I have to go back to the Doctors in 3 weeks for a check up and to make sure that I am on the right dosage. I was a bit surprised that I'd developed it at this stage of my life (I'm 40), the Doctor thinks that it was most likely triggered when I developed Bronchitis back in February and has been underlying all the coughs, colds and chest infections that I have had since then.

Any one else have it and want to share experiences with it?
