BACK ON PRED!!

2 Replies

Hi

I am back on Pred for the second time in 3 weeks. I am starting to get very down thinking that I will never be well again. My asthma has become really troublesome for the last 2 months after a long period(years) of being ok. I can not understand why this had happened all of a sudden or what might have triggered it - I am drving myself crazy trying to work out what might have caused it and how I can prevent it happening again.

Sorry I know I am just feeling sorry for myself which does not help and there are lots of others a lot worse but it is just really getting me down.
