Asthma exacerbation

Early start to the new year with antibiotics and prednisone. Manged some 6 months clear only to catch the aussie flu with a secondary bacterial infection and exacerbation. Of course the prednisone keeping me awake. Hope I can recover on one course as so often for me it's a second antibiotic and another course of prednisone and then still more prednisone. Had just managed to lose 4kgs and I can see that all going back on.

I did too, and seemed to have escaped flu-like symptoms.
