Shannon,you have seen the light and taken our advice and listened to your doctor,well done and welcome to the new you and yes that is good news indeed now go out and spread the word that you are now in control of your own destiny.
What answers do you want? You might have very mild asthma but it is well controlled with inhalers. Why are you so worried about this? The tightness in your chest and chest pain is very common with health anxiety too.
The answers - you might have very mild asthma. You definitely have severe health anxiety. Now you know so go off and live your life and stop wasting it being anxious!
You have been given the answers by your Gp.over use of your preventer will give you more problems than relief so follow her guide lines and turn into and crack on with your young life.
Take up singing with a group of people or a choir. It's amazing what a difference singing can make, and not all singing groups expect you to be the next BGT winner before you start.
Hi unless you have suffered from anxiety it is very hard to understand the horrible feeling in your chest, belly etc. No one will find you annoying for asking questions. From my own experience I knew in my own mind that in reality things were OK but reassurance from others always confirms the fact. Your obviously worried and often sharing concerns can ease anxiety. Please never feel that you cannot post. You are not a pest or annoying but someone who this group was setup to help.
Well Shannon97, at the moment doctors are being advised to try and keep ihalers to the minimum for patients. As you are young you will have to take inhalers for many years so the lowest you can manage would be best for you. Try a reduction and if it does not work go back to the GP, trial & error is the only way to know what controls your breathing best. Good luck if you give it a try, if you have problems you can always ring 111 for advice.
