Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have asthma and I smoke cigarettes. ( I smoke about 5 A day, a pack lasts me about 4 days). I went to the doctors about a week ago because I couldn t breathe, I got put on 5 days worth of Prednisone. After the five days were up I got worse... I went to the hospital today and got put on more steroids. I don t know what I can do to stop smoking. I get sick when I stop and get very agitated. I need some help on how to quit and what I can do to help myself so I don t keep having to go to the hospital...
