I did not make it to the doctor today.  It was an hour round trip drive and we have no air in our car it is tore up.  My  hubby came home from work and said he was afraid for me to go out because of the heat and humidity he had trouble breathing.  He was afraid I would have an asthma attack.  I  have silent asthma I can close up and not even know I have.  I called the doctor and they changed it till Monday.  I will try to find someone to take me that has an air conditioner.  Thank you all for your hugs and your prayers.  I really need them.  I did not sleep but about an hour last night thinking about the doctors visit today.  I wish  I could have gotten it over with.  May you all have a blessed day.

    Hi Gina! Colleen here! I am asthmatic also, have been since childhood. I use Singulair. Curious if you have tried it? I couldn't do without it! I am also from Tennessee as you know, and I don't miss that heat and humidity. Here it is 90 degrees and more but you hardly notice it, because it is so dry and windy here. Wally and I will pray things go well for you Monday! With love, your Sister in Christ, Colleen

    I am so sorry to hear you are going through this. I will pray that all goes well and that you will make that Dr's appointment Monday.

    Gina, I will pray that you have a friend or relative drive you in their car with the air conditioning on. I know what its like to not have air conditioning. One of my cars did not have it so I had to roll the windows down which didn't help in the hot summer weather. Also, I have asthma. What about taking a taxi to the doctor's office - I have done it.

    i think it was a wise decision that you rescheduled your appointment, sometimes things are changed for God's reasons that we don't know about, i hope that you make it on monday, take care till then, lots of love, ruby

    I know how that is, I have had trouble with asthma too, and heat definately escalates it. God will get you there in Jesus Name!

    I don't know about TN, but in some places you can rent a small portable oxygen bottle & mask. About the size of a fanny pack. I'm not familiar with how asthema works, would that help for the hour drive, if you had cool air to breath? Just a thought. I'll be praying for you.
