Feeling terrible today

I wrote this morning that my asthma was pretty bad. That only got worse while at work and trying to speak loudly enough for my students to hear me. I kept using my inhaler and it did nothing so I finally took a half-day sick day and went home so I could use my nebulizer. I did that, ate the lunch that I brought home from work, and then went to lay down for awhile. I slept for about 4 hours but woke up at one point with some bad stomach cramping. I don't know if this is more than just allergies or what but it stinks. I used my nebulizer again when I woke up. My breathing is better than it was this morning but still not good.

I sympathize like you would not believe. There’s nothing as bad as an asthma attack. Do you have a stabilizer inhaler like Symbicort?

@NJChicaa — ah, Prednisone.

Yes I used that a few times before giving up and coming home to the nebulizer. The next step will be the doctor tomorrow for Prednisone if this doesn't let up.

@FourWalls It doesn't bother me and it helps my asthma so much when I get to feeling like this. So far the nebulizer is working, though, so I may not need it.

I hope you are getting some virus, that's floating in the air at school! When I worked in the public school system, some of the kids were coughing, every day. Their parents sent them to school, so they knew exactly where they were.
