Mine is killing me lately, everytime I get sick it goes straight to my lungs and it won't go away. In the last month and a half I have been on antibiotics twice, and now my lungs are jacked AGAIN! Cause of a fucking cold I am getting over. How can I boost my immune system? It is hard cause I eat right and take vitamins, but everyone I work with is unhealthy and always sick. I might have to quit this job and work outside of I am going to die! ------------------     | ||

I have asthsma, although it isn't as bad as when I was younger. I have to use my inhaler a couple of times per day. I take lots of Vitamin C and drink shitloads of water so I usually get rid of most infections before they can get to my lungs. I have always wondered how my ganja smoking has affected my asthma... | ||

I cant afford to get sick cause theres nothing worse than singing with a cold..the second some I know gets sick I pop the echenacia every day until the cold or flu makes its rounds with everyone. I dont know if it works or not but I havent been sick in about a year, which is when i started taking it...you cant take it for long periods of time uninterrupted, so I just do it when the germs make their rounds. I dont have asthma though....I should cause Ive smoked for long enough. | ||

Funny this thread is here today. Usually if i just have my inhaler handy im cool, its not bad. Today its been bad though, when you use your inhaler and your chest still stays tight, and your back hurts and you get a headache as well, its not a good thing | ||

I have it. Use the inhaler more times than I can count in a day. Even a good laugh sets that shit off. So does eating too much, getting sick, and of course working out. Funny how many of us there are here. | ||

Ditto on the asthma. Mine only comes on at about 8 pm. It used to be a bitch, then I went to the hospital for a treatment. Hooked me up to a huge machine that blew cool moist air into a tube that I was supposed to breathe deeply from. I have not had a bad attack in about 2 years. | ||

MP5.... do you take sodium chromoglycatenext time u see your doctor ask him about it (brand name 'intal'). It is specifically made for people who are in constant exposure to trigger factors (such as flu bugs) and is a mast cell stabiliser, so is a preventative inhaler. you would only need to take it twice a day and it has NO SIDE EFFECTS WHATSOEVER!!!!!! I used to take it, but evenytually my asthma never came back. if your not on it give a shot or any cromylin sodium product they do now!! ------------------ |
