My Struggles With Asthma

- I’ve always had asthma but only over the last few years it has started to cause problems. I’ve managed to find what works for me and what I need to do to keep it at a controllable level.
Advice for Asthmatics:
Make sure to get your flu jab!
Take your preventers when you are meant to, don’t just take them when you need them (like I usually do).
Do some exercise to help control your breathing.
Get help if you need it and tell someone if you’re struggling!

Was anybody else having a hard time breathing while watching, even though their not diagnosed lol 😂
I was diagnosed was back year 2013
I get you
I’ve got asthma as well! I have 4 meds for my asthma. Ventolin of course, a combination medication which is two types of controller inhalers but in one, and then a pill that I have to take everyday. I’ve had peak flows at dr. Appointment but not at home
I remember my worse experience being I was doing lifeguards as well. And I had been having rough asthma weeks around that time. I got out of the water because I knew something was wrong. The actual lifeguards thought it was nothing until they realised my blue inhaler wasn’t working. Like they called my parents and 911 after like 20 something puffs ( they didn’t follow protocol lol they should’ve done that way sooner) and I was getting very weak and pale from the attack, couldn’t speak. When the paramedics came, I had taken 30 something puffs of my inhaler because 911 had told us to keep giving it to me. I had oxygen and then a ventolin nebuliser. Finally it worked. Was feeling better but very jittery because of all the medication. Since I was feeling better, hospital discharged me but when I came home, the nebuliser had lost its effect and my attack just came back. Boy it was tiring
Asthma is very scary and I feel your pain, I thought i was over it for years until I got 2 chest infections and the COVID, and now I haven't fully recovered and regularly have mini attacks. I am now taking 4 puffs of the brown one a day to hopefully recover. I wish you luck in the future!
as an older asthmatic became asthmatic from Influenza it was was a happy night when they got me having 12 shots of the blue Ventolin and 8 shots of white Atrovent in half hour lots in the space of 2 hours.
It is also connected with foods you eat: watch for preservatives in foods, bi sulfate, meta bi sulfate, dried fruits that are not organic, keep a food diary. bottled lemon juice, wines, grape juices. Be careful.
I'm sorry to see you in pain :(
I just want to hug you. I'm at the starting stage and I already feel so sick, I'm allergic to the cold whenever I'm near coldness my throat start to ache as if I have a knife stuck in it and also mucus blocks my airways so it becomes hard to breath. I really hope you got better! Stay strong we're all in this and it makes us appreciate life and breathing more.
Definitely, the combination of the cold and excess mucus production really constricts the airways making it so much harder! Hopefully this winter we can stay healthy ❄️
I HAVE ASTHMA TOO,I have 4 puffs a day,i go to school and run,but,i forget my inhaler,they called the ER and i have sever asthma ,,,,,,so,i feel terrible when i cant breath,and,its annoying to sleep with a puffed pillow
I can feel you because I'm also an asthmatic it agrevated as I got older orelse it was a cough indused asthma in my childhood now I got severe . I can actually feel you... Even there's a myth with using inhaler that you'll get addicted to inhaler. But it's helping me. People should understand rather than mocking.
I have always had breathing problems since I was a little girl then I was diagnosed with Asthma in 2005
Once you’ve got a diagnosis it’s better! You know or can research what can help/aid your situation! I hope you’re doing well!
I'm so sick, came here for help. Everything bothers me. I got the same tube thingie. Sometimes I drink coffee to help. after meds.
Both my parents had smoked until I was about 13.
Go to take a hot shower if it gets bad. I have blacked out before, gone to the hospital. 🙁 The doctor told me I could die from it. You have to be careful.
I can hear that. I’ve been making very similar songs myself over the past year or two
It tends to only really happen when it comes on suddenly or I’m having a bad attack. Whenever you’re wheezing it’s never a good sign 🤦🏼♀️
Can you do more asthma videos maybe inhaler tequnice and wht happens when you go hospital example nebuliser
Hopefully I should have some more asthma videos coming out soon ☺️
I can well relate to it..lets connect
Asthma really is such a pain! Especially in the winter too :(
Get a cold for me = chest infection
I’m on 4 inhalers a day + multiple tablets
My peak flow is off the charts low my best is 300 it’s rubbish! I have to have steroids when it gets to 250 and hospital at 200
Thank you for highlighting asthma for all asthmatics and the biggest stereotypes! Which is everyone has asthma so everyone is fine! No the asthma ‘you’ or your friend has is probably mild asthma or they hide it well enough that you can’t tell they are struggling
I can literally be wheezy all day and not one person notices because I don’t panic with wheezing anymore I can just put up with and the stigma and the staring of taking an inhaler is horrendous so I try and stretch it until I can take my inhalers without much staring
Asthma literally kills people daily 3 people in the UK everyday and no one seems to take it seriously yes there are many other conditions that are generally worse
But not breathing well enough = low oxygen = no oxygen to the blood to the heart or brain which could lead to death
I also find asthma is PAINFUL when my chest is tight it hurts and I’m always achey after an attack even a ‘small’ one causes discomfort
Personally my asthma is too severe to exercise like you can. I can go walking and swimming etc
But I cannot run and I can’t over exert myself otherwise I will be in hospital most likely I have to exercise in a more gentle way if that makes sense
Thank you thank you!!
One thing I’ve learnt is you have to assess your own asthma and do whatever makes things better for you. It’s definitely different for everyone so once you’ve found what helps, try and include it. This time of year is always the worst, so much flu around. Make sure you get a flu vaccine to try and help too! I hope things start to get a little easier for you ✨

Yes I agree x I always have the flu jab always! x
Thank you for sharing your experiences and shouting out that asthma isn’t easy!!! x thank you x
i don't know if it was 2018. but I got a cough. but i didn't go to the doctor. I had a cough for months. i thought i had lung cancer. many people said to me go to the doctor. but i didn't go to the doctor. I coughed hundreds of times a day. then I went to the doctor. and he gave me tablets. But it didn't get better and I went back to the doctor and wanted more tablets. but the cough didn't stop. I went to a pulmonologist. and he gave me spray. and i should take the spray until the spray was empty. and if the cough is still not gone, I should come back. the spray was all but i waited 1 week or 2 weeks and then my cough was gone. I don't know what happened, but I survived it was really bad. my lungs sounded bad. Stay healthy jess
I had the same experience! It lasted for months as well but when I went to check two doctors gave me inhalers told me I'm starting to have asthma but told me to use them for months and then come back to confirm but due to covid-19 I didn't go back. I even caught the virus but I'm still alive miraculously.. I should go back to check maybe I don't have it and hopefully not lung cancer.. I'm so scared.
Whenever i see my asthma nurse.she scolds me for not getting a proper reading for peak flow
I usually get 340 to 370
I would ask you something about her inhaler the brown inhaler does it prevent to have an asthma attack or just it doesn't work cuz I I use it for maybe 2 weeks it makes me comfortable but in the same time I had wheezing I never had it before so I have it a little a little bit tight in my chest but when I start the using the prevent inhaler as I see some symptoms like wheezing that I never had it before so my question here so I feel like the prevent inhaler does not prevent you have an asthma attack so I just want to make sure if I used to have Brown inhaler or preventing here and for long period of time that's going to affect me an opposite way that's why I scared about or worried about cuz the doctor it doesn't talk to you about the fact you will have in the long period of time of using the preventer so what do I do so should I use the preventer like everybody else or just go on would have to preventer even even though I have a little bit tired in my chest but I don't have wheezing
Am struggling with it it's so hard
You should use nexthaler which combo inhaler with steroid reliever all in one. With running do it slowly baby steps to strengthen lungs .
I don't know if I have asthma but as a child I used to cough all night long.
Since then it's been a good 15 years and now I feel that even at rest I feel stuffy and short of breath.
I now have all the symptoms of non-allergic asthma apart from a cough because I don't cough now.
And there was no asthma in the family
I have asthma
I hope you're able to manage it properly during this time! My tips would be to make sure to do some exercise (a walk, run or cycle, whatever you fancy) and to keep taking your preventer (this is just what I do and it seems to help) x
@@JessWadey16 my asthma has been bad since October and it has got worse since being in isolation
I'm so sorry to hear that, I really hope it starts getting better soon! If it gets really bad then I'd make sure you get a check up! Maybe take some antihistamine tablets and maybe even some mindfulness/meditation may help
@@JessWadey16 I ran out of allergy tablets I was meant to have a phone call with my doctor on the 9th April but they did not call so I don't know what to do because my asthma nurse said I might need more medication to get my asthma under control
Sophie Vlogs I’d definitely call them to try and let them know, just keep trying to keep yourself busy and let me know how it goes x
Try yoga, meditation, eat a plant based diet and drink herbel teas, Blessed Be.
so sorry i have asthma to i know what it is like
It can be very difficult at times but it’s all about management and doing what works for you!
Good luck Hun does it matter how old r u to exercise
How can u sleep with ashma
Take steam inhalation and raise your pillows. Drink warm ginger tea.
It should help.
