Re: Help me

It could be mild Asthma or allergy attack. Where do you live? Polution problem? When I went to live in PK, within months, I started to have non-stop cough along with flu type symptoms. A mild asthma and dust allergy was detected. Dont take it lightly. I took long to finally go and see a doc and I suffered. See a good doctor asap.

Are you a dr? What is a "stress induced asthma"? What are the symptoms?

Otherwise if it only comes with stress then you may have stress induced asthma.

Belle I had one of those coughs too. It lasted 6 months. I went to several doctors cos none of them could figure out why I had it or give me a medicine to cure it. I was given everrthing from tablets to syrups to inhalers. I was even told I had asthma. It was a dry irritating cough and I couldn;t speak more than a few words before coughing again. One doctor told me it was psychological..she asked me if I was unhappy with my job. Of course I hated that job and told her so too. So she advised me to quit if I was that stressed out and unhappy with it. A few months later I did and as miraculous as it may sound...the cough was gone within days.

Whats stressing you out?

Yep, I’ve had that too earlier this year and it lasted for a few months! It wasn’t much later that I realized it was stress-related. I finished a whole bottle of cough syrup within 2 weeks, but nothing helped.

Stop stressing, dadi. :flower1:

Those cough syrups are addictive :mudhosh:
And don’t lie. We know you liked it.

Asthma can be caused by many things like allergins, exercise, weather and even stress. The symptoms are same as regular asthma, just that its induced by stress.
