OK I'm currently experiencing the worst asthma attack in over 15 years and it bites gonads (smelly ones). I've had asthma for a total of about 25 years, the doctors said I'd grow out of it... MY ASS!!

Anyone else have asthma?
My friend who is a damn good naturopath was telling me that it doesn't really exist and is actually chemical sensitivity, this kinda makes sense.

Yeah I have asthma. It's not that bad anymore though. I think being active helps.

I had bad asthma then saw a naturopath and it was down to nothing. I didn't even need my nerdy nebuliser anymore.

Used to have sports asthma (it was triggered by high levels of activity I swear it), but I got over it.

2 things I fear, if my kids (not that I have any now) ever got asthma even half as bad as I did when I was young or dying from breathing related issues.

Asthma is the quality of a turd.

It does seem that most people's asthma gets a ahell of a lot better in their teens thankfully!

I had an asthma attack once. After that I kept getting wheezy especially when it's cold or when I have even a mild illness, but I've been fine since my teens.
