So now I have asthma too... *BIG SIGH*

Posted by Spriggy on June 29, 2005, at 16:38:31

Well,
I thought this heavy feeling in my chest and difficulty breathing was anxiety- apparently, I was wrong. ROFL

I think I have convinced myself that I'm a hypochondriac, therefore, when there really is a problem, I just chalk it up to the hypochodriac thing and ignore it..

So now I am an inhaler. I had asthma as a kid back in Alabama, but it's been many years since I've had any problems.

Can hayfever cause asthma? I've had horrible allergies this year and hay fever, I am just curious if that could be a trigger.

I swear, if I get one more diagnosis, they might as well prepare the tombstone. *sigh*

As far as I understand it, yes, allergies are a prime trigger for asthma.

I'm sorry you're hit with another whammy, Spriggy. You have had so much on your plate already.

Be well.
