Asthma

@Gizmo Doctors are known not to listen to women. They are always quick to tell women that their problems are all in tbeir heads.

Oh yeah! I agree totally with that, and especially male doctors. Some females will listen if they've been through the same thing.

My female doctor is doing more than the male doctor I was seeing. She's really awesome.
 
When I was with my ex for two years she would go in quite a lot and they could never find out what the problem was. They were almost making out that she was making it up. She was very manipulative to me though so anything is possible .
Ugh I understand that. I go in a lot but I do have medical issues but they NEVER take me serious! I HATE the hospitals here. 🙁

I get that too A LOT! 🙄 Makes me want to be a kid again and live in Florida! I was treated so MUCH better! 😕 Only if I could go back in time.
 
Going for the X-ray this morning shouldn't take too long to hear back from doctor about the results.

Maybe the tech will tell you on the spot? 😀
 
Chest X-ray came back normal so hopefully my asthma goes away soon

Are they just going to continue to have you on the antibiotics? I can't remember if you're on prednisone?

Prednisone didn't work but they're getting me to continue the antibiotics.

Oh wow! I'm not sure why they're doing antibiotics, tbh. But if it works!!

Hopefully or she will need to figure something else out next Tuesday. She hasn't changed any of my inhalers yet so maybe that's the next plan.

Maybe your body has gotten used to the inhaler you've been using?
 
I think my asthma is slowly getting better. Almost finished the third lot of antibiotics the doctor has given me and I'm not coughing too much. I did have a coughing fit after I sneezed though earlier 😂

I've had this cough for just over two months.
 
I don't suffer from asthma, but my eldest son does. It was back in 2018, he started making a hiccup noise, which gradually got worse and obviously worried me, so I took him to the doctors, and the doctor put him on a nebuliser and would not let him leave for the hospital until we had transport.

Over 6 hours in hospital with tests and such, and he was diagnosed with asthma, but it is not asthma that he has all the time, it's allergy asthma when he comes into contact with anything he has an allergy to, which we know is certain breeds of cat and dust as well as pollen.

Watch out for oral allergy syndrome where the body confuses the proteins of other foods that are cross overs to allergens such as pollen. I went through that this summer with fresh fruits and veggies. Now I'm stopping all those until I get my allergies under control.
