does anyone here have asthma

[richard]

im shure that isnt the correct spelling, but i was wondering what it feels like? i dont have asthema but everyonece in awile i'll get short of breath like my lungs are constricting, and not getting enough air. almost like weezing, and i have to force myself to breath it just so startling because i feel like im gonna trigger a bloodclot to the brain or something while this happens. and no its not a panic attack

has anyone ever expeirianced this?

I don't have asthma, but that sure sounds a lot like it to me.

I used to have asthma. It sounds like you could have - I didnt know you could develop it later in life. Could also be an allergy or you need to stop smoking.

[richard]

i wonder if you can develoupe asthema? im shure you could because i dont smoke so that wouldnt make sence. ive smoked pot a few times though

[richard]

how did you use to have it? did it go away? i thought it was an incurable disease?

You need to start running in the mornings son. Couple of miles a day can make all the difference. DO SOME FUCKING PT!

I have it.  How bad it is can change according to health as well as weather and air quality- when I have a cold it can get pretty hardcore.  When i was a kid I had it wicked bad, I guess.  I think you can develop it later in life but am not sure- I know how bad it is can vary for me, anyway.  Now, I carry an inhaler with me at all times just in case, but when I'm otherwise in good health I don't need to use it too often.

But you agree also that regular physical training can help the symptoms though right? Excersise is great medicine.

Yes and no- I'm no expert but as I said my asthma is affected by my overall health (including physical health); however, I woudln't tell someone with undiagnosed asthma to suddenly so a bunch of hardcore cardio.  I see that maybe resulting in, uh... well, worst case scenario, death.   

[RageBeoulve]

Only a couple of miles isn't THAT hardcore is it?

[El]

It would be in weather like I have near me today- very cold, very dry air.

[RageBeoulve]

Yeah a lot of people have a hard time with that in the army. Thats why they yell at you to hydrate well before a pt test.

[richard]

so exercising gets id of it aye

[RageBeoulve]

Well it doesn't get rid of it, but i'm willing to bet it will improve your symptoms.

I have asthma. It's v mild, most of the time. My overall health health affects it, just as PMS said, but physical exercise does not help the symptoms as such. Quite the opposite, actually, when I'm at risk getting an asthma attack.
