I am afraid to hope, but I think

I think my uncontrolled asthma of the past 6 weeks is getting under control. It happened so fast. Yesterday and now today, I am hardly wheezing or short of breath. My peak flow used to drop by the hour after using Ventolin, and now it stays pretty steady all day. The allergist increased my Symbicort and that is what did it. The past 6 weeks have been absolutely awful and frightening. I am afraid to hope. But things are really different -- better. Omigosh!

Good for you. Controlling asthma can be a bit of trial & error, but it sounds like you've made good progress there & I hope your recovery carries on.

Yes, and hopefully, now the grass pollen has reduced, things will stay a little calmer for those who suffer from allergies.
