LIFE STORIES OF PEOPLE WHO ARE COPING WITH OR HAVE CURED THEIR ASTHMA

Story one

From my own experiences as an asthmatic, I’ve learned that the best way to fight it is to religiously follow the treatment plan my doctor creates and to avoid any triggers of asthma attacks.I cannot emphasize how important it is to take your medication as prescribed. This will lengthen your asthma attack free periods and may make it go completely into remission. If you still experience asthma symptoms even on medication, discuss it with your doctor and he/she can adjust the dose and dosing schedule, or prescribe alternatives. And if you’re not sure you’re using your inhalers correctly, ask your doctor/nurse to show you how to use them.Avoid any known triggers if possible. If you have allergy induced asthma, try to avoid coming into contact with allergens (that you’d been made aware of by doing allergy testing). If you’re allergic to pollen, try to stay indoors and to keep windows closed during pollen season. If your allergies have to do with dust mites then you’d want to use dust-mite proof beddings, and to launder them weekly or even biweekly. There’s a lot of information on the internet about how to deal with specific allergies.Pay attention to your breathing and how you generally feel. Over the years, I’ve come to realize that there are some warning signs of an impending asthma attack (for me at least). Before I begin experiencing obvious signs like coughing at night or wheezing, I notice I’m more tired than usual and I easily become short of breath even doing activities that usually wouldn’t make me breathless.Always always keep your reliever inhaler with you. It seems obvious but you’d be surprised by how many people end up having asthma attacks and not having their inhalers with them.

Story TWO

I answer this one because I have successfully done it. We may have different circumstances in life, different medical histories and genetics but it's not for me to decide if this answer will help you or not. It doesn't constitute medical advice and the readers are encouraged to seek professional help for their medical conditions.As a child growing up with asthma, I was familiar with all the side effects of the drugs used to treat my condition. Used Berodual inhalers all the time, orally took Brycanil everyday suffering through its distressful side effects such as heart palpitations, headches, and dizziness just to get through the day breathing and alive. The condition persisted until I couldn't take it anymore and decided once and for all that I didn't want to be a victim of the drugs anymore and that I had to know what's the underlying cause of the asthma in order to completely eradicate it from the source.Long story short, I researched it as if my life depended on it and learned how to vanquish it from my life. I was successful in this that even my own mother conquered her own asthma using the same intervention. We both have not experienced asthma for more than thirty years now with no drugs, medications, and other medical intervention.Drink at least two glasses of water followed by a pinch of rock salt placed on the tongue every two hours.Avoid drinking coffee.Stop using sugar.Walk everyday.Stop stressful thinking and worrying.Good luck!
