^ I'll bet!
I've lived here in Mississauga all my life so I guess I can say I'm 'used' to the air.
What triggers asthma for you?
For me its taking part in a fast paced sport (like basketball) or if something makes me cough alot. |

My asthma is triggered by stuff in the air, dry dust, and sports. I play soccer and floor hockey and find that I only use my inhaler for that. But being in the damp night air will trigger an attack. |

If you have a drug plan you should try this inhaler called 'flovent'
I've been using it for the past while and its excellent! It does a great job in preventing attacks before they even happen.
Its rather expensive though...$50 a pop...thats why you should have a drug plan.
When I'm on it (and I'm not sick) I NEVER have to use my inhaler |

Yes, I do take Flovent twice a day. And it works wonders. I am also on Ventelin as well. And I use Dimetapp! I pay 35 cents per perscprition on my dad's drug plan. |

Ahh the good ol' days of parents drug plans.
I remember payin 35 cents way back when I was 18.
But since I'm no longer in school their plan wouldnt cover me.
My current plan with work covers 80% of drugs, so I try to be easy on the inhalers.
Do you find Dimetapp helps with the asthma? |

| Well with the Dimetapp, I have been on that since I was two and it seems to be only thing that clears up the congestion. They reformulated it a few years back because before that there was an ingrident that caused children to be prone to addiction of Dimetapp. |

| My mom used to give that to me every four hours most days in the winter. My mom was one of those over protective worry warts. |

No problem! The red Dimetapp extra strength clears throat and nasal congestion in a week. Or if you really want to be brave you can down a whole bottle and sleep for two days and wait up with alot of energy and no congestion!

Cure for childhood asthma problems:
MOVE TO A DESERT CLIMATE!!!
When I was like 4-5 I had asthma then my family moved to Saudi Arabia and within no time the symptoms were gone...then after 12 years I came back without a trace of the stuff...
Dubai is looking pretty good these days! ;) |
