Well, my asthma flare up turned into bronchitis. Went to the doctor today. She gave me a breathing treatment in the office and I picked up the antibitolic from Publix. I REALLY hope this stuff works and fast because she said if this doesn't work to fill the prescription she gave me for Prednisone. Nooooo! Don't want to go down that road again.

" Sorry your sick, steriods is the only thing that keeps my airways open when I get sick. Do you have a nebulizer at home, if not you may want to see if your doctor can get you one, it helps me tremenslouly. "

" Thank you...no, I don't have a nebulizer. I am so sick of coughing. I am not getting the rest I need b/c I keep coughing. May have to fill the Prednisone. :( "

" Maybe ask your doctor for a Rx for a nebulizer? Using it during times when my asthma flares up is essential for not getting worse since the treatment provides a better way to get the bronchodialator meds into the smaller airways. Plus it provides moisture to get the junk out. "
