HBB1:


Where did you get this from?

forreelliinc:

whenever he is having an asthmatic attack, you will need to give him head so the tension in his lungs will go into his balls

also you should not let him go to sleep with blue balls otherwise the tension from his balls will go to his lungs and chest

HBB1:


You don't knowwho I am or what I do for a living...


If you need an adrenaline shot for your asthma, you should be in Intensive care.
You are misusing it and you don't want to understand.

You also realise aminophylline isn't first line treatment, though it is abused in Nigeria?

The day someone's heart will stop with all this rubbish people do...

Anyway, it's your life, but please don't recommend what you know nothing about to people.

scriptaz18:


Like you said, "it's your life" - thank you. This is the more reason people need to understand the meaning of "abuse". It's a prescription given to me (like others) by a health professional in 'Ayinke House'. I've been on it for over five years and it has improved my 'asthmatic management'.
That a drug has an adverse effect has to do with the abuse of the intake - Tramadol is a very good drug (medicinally) but because of the abuse, people say all sorts of things about it.
You are not asthmatic (I don't pray you become one as I pray for healing for those of us who are) - the pain and the difficulties to breathe come from the heart. The adrenaline (shot after a shot) gives your heart the strength for you to cough out the phlegm that are blocking the passage of air.
See, inhaler are never effective then - you puff in but the phlegm bounces it out. Hence, the need for aminophline (intravenous) to help you cough them out. Or better still, the adrenaline for a faster reaction.
Like I said, you no know the pain pass people wey wear the shoes.

HBB1:


The prescriber should be shot!

You know nothing about what you are saying, nothing at all.

...but it's all good.

Enjoy!

scriptaz18:


Seriously, shot? Thank you but that prescription has kept me alive today. If you are a health worker, ill suggest you update your knowledge on the use of adrenaline. Mind you - as little as the liquid content is, you take three shots within 10 minutes and it is advisable to be used in time of crisis (like I said in my first response before you took me around this grammatical exercise).
Bros, I no wetin I dey talk. Go and Google it. Thank you.

I agree with you. Medicine is not mathematics. Treatment change with time. What is considered standard treatment today can become dangerous in few years time. There is no one size fits all. As long as you get the necessary relief and it's has been able to keep you alive and less pain for over five years, then you are alright.

It's the same thing with malaria. I am very prone to malaria and I struggled all the way from childhood to adulthood with malaria. In fact anytime I do blood test, there was always some degree of malaria in my blood. My drug of choice all through my childhood was chloroquine. But since about 10 years ago, I was informed that chloroquine has been banned. The doctor said it has all sorts of side effects, some of which are fatal. No so my wahala start o. I have tried every new drug in the market, it only help me for about 2 weeks to a month. After a month or so I am down again. I buy some of the drugs for up to N4, 000. Same thing with my children.
Last month I got so frustrated and went to my chemist friend, I told him want chloroquine injection , morning and night for 3 days. I told him I would pay him anything. He agreed. After that intensive regime for 3 days, I became very weak, but I recovered after 2 days. A week later I went to test again for malaria, and for the first time in years, they could not find one plasmodium parasite in my blood.

After this I tool all my children for injection (although on a less intensive regime), and today, they too are malaria free. What I do now, to keep the malaria at bay, is to take Fansidar every 2 weeks.

So different strokes for different folks.

HBB1:


Did you read 'nebulised' adrenaline?

Did you read that there was no marked difference between nebulised adrenaline and Salbutamol?


If you need adrenaline shots for your asthma, then you need intensive care.


You think Adrenaline is child's play?

Issorait

This guy is in love and that's cool..

Guys here will never discourage you from coping with your asthmatic Fiancee.. .

I know feminist will not do the same if the case were to be reversed...

My advice is that you speak with her.. You may need to see health practitioners for professional counseling

Major problems in Asthmatic people are the triggers..

Once they can avoid their specific triggers, they are good to go..

I am sure she knows how to deal with them already...

Also, I don't think it has any negative effect on pregnancy and childbirth...

Does she use her inhaler regularly??

midnighter:


So throughout your whole childhood nobody offered you a different prophylactic?? nawa

wirinet:

I tried piriton, but I always react. Once I take it get chest congestion (mild asthma) for up to three days.

Is there any other you can recommend. I now use Fansider.

midnighter:


Is it for allergies, asthma or malaria?

It seems youre doing well on the Fansider. I took it for a short while and almost ran mad does it affect your stomach as it did mine?

wirinet:


Sorry, my error. I mean to say Sunday Sunday medicine, can't remember the generic name.

I take piriton when I have sinusitis and other allergies.

midnighter:


Well if the Sunday Sunday is working, do you really want to change it? Its sounding ok the way youve described it

For allergies I would suggest you see a doctor and ask for another antihistamine since the Piriton is giving you trouble

scriptaz18:


It's not about the superlative, "nebulised" - I know. It's about if it can be used to manage severe crisis. It's the same reason I told you it should be 'prescribed' and strictly taken during the crisis.
But seriously, I meant no offence to you in the exchange of words. It's raining now (asthmatic season) and I have no fears for the attack because I took the last shot over three months ago and my breathing is normalised. Likewise others that have used it to normalize theirs.
Asthma is not a sickness - it's a condition. The phlegm is the problem - it's very sticky and block your windpipe but if you can cough it out (often with the aid of the injections), you'll live a 'normal life'.
Take care, sir.

wirinet:

It was the Sunday Sunday medicine that was giving me problems. I have no problems with piriton

midnighter:


so what problems are you having?

wirinet:

Once I take it, I will be unable to sleep for 3 days. I will have serious chest congestion, mild asthma attack, mostly at night.
It happens every time I take it.

queenet246:


You see how you guys embarrass yourselves? The OP is a female. The guy is the one with the Asthma

Oluwasaeon:

Are you sure about this, bro ?

Pr0cter:
It's no biggie. You have nothing to worry about. Just recommend seritide inhaler for him whenever he has an attack. That's the best relief for asthma and it prevents continuous attack.


Congratulations all the same.

midnighter:


Are you sure you havent developed an allergy?

nkemjacob2:
i can't say, for good 3mnths I have forgotten I have asthma

AXYZ:


It could be you, it could be anybody.

I remember my wife telling me nobody wanted to marry her because she's asthmatic, until I came. I asked myself, what if I was? Everybody deserves to be happy.

God bless

Millichamp:



You married her out of pity

spiceadole:
Let your spouse be seen by a pulmonologist or even a general practitioner who will monitor him,educate and give medications to reduce the frequency and severity of attacks.

Asthma is not hereditary but it runs in families.

I am asthmatic.
I am a medical doctor.

My parents are not asthmatic, neither is any of my siblings.
My paternal grandfather and 2 uncles(now late) were

Last attack I had was 5 years ago in 2014.
I visited a relative who used old rugs and ceiling fans were consumed by dust.
That was all...I was nebulized in the hospital and given medications.
I have been attack free since then.
That does not mean I cannot have an attack if I'm exposed to the allergens.
Asthma is not curable
