Meds reduced again!

[Never_too_old]

Hi Peeps in my phone. On Wednesday, my Asthma meds were reduced again! I now only have 1 more reduction to have had them reduced by half and back to where I was 2 years ago. Today was my first run since the reduction and I was anxious but....I did it, 30 minutes straight and at my usual pace. To say I'm chuffed is an understatement. Who knew? (Well, obviously you lot knew 😉) thanks again for all the support, even 'also me' was chuffed and didn't notice I had 2 right feet on 🤭

Just a bit of simple exercise and our bodies function as they have evolved to ......... brilliantly!!

It certainly is brilliant! Hoping this time next year to be off the steroid inhalers completely. Fingers crossed!

Haha 'peeps in my phone' love that 😄 that's amazing, well done. Love hearing stories like this, they give me a good reminder of why I'm doing this and just to get on and do it. After being out for months on the IC couch I keep making stuttering starts, feeling great and then backing off and starting again. Figured I'm more nervous about my injury flaring up than I thought, and my Also Me is telling me if I don't run, I can't fail 🙃 the Me, Me lol knows very well the fail is me not getting out there. So thank you for the reminder and huuuge congrats with the meds reduction 😊

Good morning, thank you for your comment 🙂 I argue constantly with myself! I try not to think of failure and put it down to being inexperienced 😉, my husband is my reminder of how far I've come, he encourages me constantly and this group is amazing. I've literally just got got back from my 1st 5k run outside on reduced meds, I managed to knock 2 mins off my best time. It still took me 46.19 but 6 months ago I struggled with a minute run 🤭 you can do it! 🙂
