I have it. It's not horribly bad, never a problem with exercise and such. Allergies will bother me, but this virus worries me. I've got the stuff for homemade cough medicine just in case I get a cough. You take anything besides lije albuterol?

I have COPD and lung cancer. I take a breathing treatment, ipratroptium/albuterol, and Trelegy inhaler that has three medicines in it once a day. If I get the Wuhan flu I will probably be headed to my great reward. Of course doctors said I wouldn’t survive sepsis so only God knows when it’s your time.

I just got a new inhaler after seeing that the one in my purse expired in February 2019. 🤪

I take prescription montelukast (Singulair) and over-the-counter cetirizine (Zyrtec.) My asthma is triggered by allergies. Hubs takes the same plus something called Dulera.

Hot showers (lots and lots of steam) can help the tightness.

Stay on top of this, you two. I’ve never had asthma suddenly take off on me, but I’ve seen it happen, and it’s scary as hell.

While I’m glad to see you go back to work, I worry also. That’s what friends do.

That's exactly what I take, singular and zyrtec, copycat!!😄. Seriously, they help, and mine is only normally triggered by allergies. I did have an attack after staining a dresser once, scary as crap. Paint has never bothered me, but using that stain did. Haven't used it since.

The zyrtec will become ineffective after awhile. I switched to loratadine (claritin) and it works much better for me.

I used to take that before I found Zyrtec, but it didn't work well for me, same with Allegra. Benadryl is good, but makes me like a zombie.

I took citirizine for about 10 years. It worked great then I started double dosing it when it lost efficacy. That started not working so well so I switch. I'm sure the loratadine will start to fade in a few years and I will get back to it. Since spring is here with it's up and down temps and humidity I am back on my daily and emergency inhalers.....Qvar and Albutirol

They're doing the social distance thing at work in the break room. But we're still side by side in the plant at times.
