Hospital... Posted: 01-25-07 01:30am
Thats where I went last night, at like 2
30 in the morning I had an asthma attack
and yeah not fun, I had to call my
grandparents to take me cause shawn had
some nyquil and well the baby, so yeah
then I got sent home so I came home after
having 2 doses of ventalin, and picked up
reese and his things and stayed at my
grandparents then, (got home around 4 30)
been at my grandparents for like 15 mins
and then back to the hospital I had to go
cause it came back, had another shot of
ventalin, and got a perscription for 2
differnt puffers, one I have to take 2
puffs twice a day, the other only when I
feel my cheast tightening, and I also got
some sort of staroid for my lungs, (it
tastes nasty) I was so pissed off last
night, they gave me my first thing of the
staryoid (that ur sposta take with food or
milk) they gave me water, so on the way to
the car I puked it up along with bile 5
times!!!!!!!!! .what! doing it nurses,
not like its hard to go get a cup of milk
or something rather then water!.. Anyways
I didnt get on here today because I was at
my grandparents sick like a dog, and the
one time I went to go on here well....
Yea, reese cried.. *sigh* anyways
tomorrow morning im going back to my
grandparents place and im gonna call the
doc to ask if the puffers or steroids will
effect my birth control... (i hope not) I
dont want another couple months of
.C.O.N.D.O.M.S anyways, thats my story....
Ill miss you guys, wish me healthy ness!

Steroids and inhalers do not affect birth
control, I can assure you of that because
I have been asthmatic for 20 years and
take them myself.
Asthma is really scary and i'm sorry to
hear you had a rough time last night -
i've had to go to hospital several times
and be placed on a nebuliser. One attack
I had, when I was 11 years old, I was
staying at a friend's house and no-one
believed I was really ill. I lay in bed
gasping and wheezing for 2 days until I
was taken to the hospital. My friend's
mum thought I was trying to get out of
going to church! what!
Anyway, hope the inhalers help you. My
asthma is well controlled now with qvar
and airomir.

aw, that
sucks. Did you have asthma before or was
this your first attack? I used to have it
really bad but I guess I grew out of it, I
haven't had to use my inhaler in a really
long time.
Feel better!

I feel for ya hun, I just had a simmilar
episode...And I do mean *just* like 10
minutes ago
im exteamly allergic to mold and our
apartment has so much damn mold in it and
our managment wont do anything about it,
we have to literally bleach the house
every other week, its rediculous
well my brother found a cristmas card box
with mold on it and gave it to me to look
at and asked me if it was mold (very nice
of him eh?) within 3 seconds of being near
that box I couldnt breath, threw the box
at him and said yes
but thankfully I went by the open door and
took some benedryl so I could get "clean"
air into my lungs, called my ob to be sure
I could take my inhaler and now im a bit
better, so I dont need to go to the
hospital thankfully
just so glad we knew what caused it and
could get it away from me, sometimes im
not so lucky
