So I got a prescription for Advair this last week. And I haven't had to use my rescue inhaler for 4 whole days! WOO! It's been a huge relief, because I just didn't feel like I was in a healthy state, not being able to breathe. The doctors say there was nothing UN-healthy about me, but they found that the asthma was definitely limiting me. The Advair has opened up my lungs and increased my air intake by quite a bit. There are some side effects I have to watch for - mainly weight gain (NOOOOO) and osteoporosis (have to start checking my bone density at 40 instead of 55). But for the time being I will cherish being able to breathe in the fresh, clean Los Angeles air! What?

Oh that's good to hear. No fun for sure. Trentin's been having problems with asthma too. I'm glad you found something that works for you. YAY!
