I came down with a bad case of the flu recently and had to get an Albuterol breathing treatment today. I felt odd right away : shaky, heart was racing etc. The nurse told me it was normal so i ignored it.
When I came home I went to bed and started experiencing the worst panic of my life...I was sweating, I was shaking, I kept seing nightmares...although i have to admit night time panic is something i have all the time.
I have no idea wether it was the albuterol or just anxiety... It scares me to think i could die from the inhaler... Anybody had the same experience? Did you continue taking the inhaler?
TIA
