well it all started on monday when this girl I work with (who has no history of asthma or allergy) started coughing and retching and saying she couldn't breathe, her doctor gave her a ventolin inhaler and antibiotics, the girl said it was the pollen from a tree near the garden causing everything.
she was sent home and came back on wednesday, she did the same thing again, coughing, retching, wierd breathing etc the inhaler didn't help so my manager called an ambulance, the paramedic told her she was hyperventilating, she was also lying on the floor and flailing about, she was not given any meds but was taken to hospital where they said she was allergic to something and given pred, she was not kept in and had no allergy symptoms eg itching, swelling, rash, wheezing etc, she has now also told the manager she has asthma.
Just wondered what anyone thinks about this, she was told by the doctor she was putting the breathing on and making everything worse, seems very stange to me!
