4 Replies

hi,

My asthma seems to worsen at times of stress(does anyone elses?) my gp suggested incresing medication for a week or so before a big event. This really worked when i got married 2 weeks ago. I thought you all would like to try this before anything that might be stressful, if you didnt already know

stress and asthma

hi Belinda - hope married life goes well. I've had asthma all my life and now at my advanced age (49) I have to admit that yes stress does make it worse. I feel that it is my fault somehow when my asthma worsens due to psychological states rather than when it dips becuase of a virus or allergies. I often feel vulnerable when my asthma is poor.
