Did you know that some asthma-sufferers have no trouble breathing? A different variety of the disease, cough-variant asthma, is just as serious as the more common version.

My oh my...if my doc looked like him I'd be "sick" all the time! What a hottie! Tomorrow I am scheduled for a pulmonary function test to definitively determine if I have asthma. I've been using Asmanex once a day and an Albuterol inhaler as needed. I was checking out some informational videos on You Tube when I came across this video. This is going into my favorites! ; )

(MY story, continued) Only after tearing an abdominal muscle did the ER finally take me seriously and give me a steroid. The steroid put an immediate end to the coughing. If I had not been so persistent, I know that I would have died from this. I refused to pay the bill they sent me and I let them know why. I now have an allergy dr who takes me seriously and keeps me in good health. I'll sing like a bird on this topic if it keeps others from suffering like I did.

I have this. I experienced about 2 solid months of coughing. No phlegm, just a dry, hard, hacking, nonproductive cough. Whenever I went to the ER, the spirometry and peak flow tests would be normal which would completely confuse the medical students, who kept giving me Robitussin, and codeine cough syrups. Drinking them like water, I continued to cough until I had to support myself on a wall or chair to have enough strength TO cough.
