Asthmatic/chronic bronchitis

[Stringfellow_Hawke]

In late 2017, days after turning 32, I was diagnosed with asthma. In November that year, my wife and I went to Wheeling WV to a hockey game for our 5th year anniversary and we planned to stay the night in neighboring St. Clairsville OH. That night, I couldn’t stop coughing after only 2 hours of sleep. It just wouldn’t stop. In the weeks preceding I had been coughing on and off like most would with a cold but nothing too bad. Later the next month, it hit me hard one night driving home from work. It was bad, so bad I nearly passed out at the wheel and even vomited all over myself. I took a big dose of NyQuil when I got home and that stopped it. I went to the doctor and was diagnosed,given a breathing treatment, and an inhaler and some antibiotics. That helped until the inhaler ran out. I wound up going back for the same thing and additional medicine. This time I’m told it’s bronchitis. I don’t think it’s going to go away. I’ve had to use my inhaler a lot this past week due to the heat and humidity.

And actually,you may want to see if you have a upper respiratory infection,sometimes those pop up from time to time.

You should ask your doctor for one.They are usually portable and come with small little doses of liquid medicine to put in them.They usually clear up asthma attacks.You can also order your own machine online as well
