Odd things
I'm noticing in this so very cold winter, some odd things are catching me out. Opening the fridge just to get out the milk for a cuppa last night tightened the chest. Yet tonight its ok. Putting down to the incredible outside temperature in which I walked up to the shops, two days in a row. Minus 11 degrees centigrade, no matter how you hap up warm with Buff in place over mouth and nose - I know the Buff works cos my glasses get so steamed up with breathed out warmed air that I can't see where I'm going? - Today the outside temperature was a balmy 4+ degrees centigrade and I could open the fridge with no bother to lungs.
I'd thought the first year with asthma, a long learning curve. I'm now realising its the first years.

The extreme cold can bring on shortness of breath.
exercise also can bring on a problem..
also pets and other triggers.

I hope you are feeling better. My little boy struggles with Asthma. this has been the hardest winter on him yet. He went from on medication to four for a while. He is back down to two medications and one rescue medication. Asthma is miserable.
I am a survivor of multiple asthma attacks that debilitated my childhood... I feel your pain
Hello... I am an English major at a small Liberal Arts school in Ohio who was told to write a blog for his intro to computing class...
I complied (check me out I have some poetry and a few short stories on it) I
was also told to post comments on ten people's boards so... Mr. Midge Man strikes again!
From one who has lived with asthma for over 30 years, you just have to figure out your triggers--very warm or very cold doesn't bother me, but when the weather changes quickly, I'm flummoxed!
Good luck and take care.
