What Should I Do To Prevent Asthma Attacks ?
I have been getting frequent asthma attacks in the last 3 weeks. One real bad one today that I felt I would stop breathing as I was eating . Hospitalized for about 2 weeks in the last3 weeks. I was told to go back to emerg. if it happens again as it is probably environmental. Prednisone, advair, atrovent, singulair, ventolin only offer temporary relief. Coughing has exhausted me. I feel like a regular at emerg. What do I do? I am tired of the attitude I get at the hospital. My last visit was Well good luck as I am sure we will see you again soon.
