As my cat has had all the drugs and injections and nothing is working an inhaler is the last resort.
I mean the inhalers for cats from the vets.
She will be 3 years old in March.
She goes to asthma clinic once a month and is on 2 different inhalers.
I wondered if anyone has any suggestions on what would be best for her?
Anti allergy pillows?
Laminate floor in her bedroom?
Is there anything special that needs to be done to make life easier for her?
After a recent trip to the doctor it was diagnosed that my 18 month old son could possibly has asthma. He was prescribed two inhalers which should be administered through a nebuliser. He is supposed to take 5-10 breaths from the nebuliser for each one, however he gets really upset when he sees it or when we try and give it to him. This means we are lucky if he can get one or two breaths from it. We have tried to put him more at ease with it, by pretending to take it ourselves or pretending to give it to his teddies but it doesn’t seem to make any difference, he will still get really upset.
Can anyone give me any advice on how to help him be more comfortable with taking it? If any one has had any similar situations with their children and any solutions they found that worked.
Any advice anyone could give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
If so how did you do it? I really want to quit smoking more than ever. I have been smoking for about 9 years. I now smoke 20 a day.
I have tried the gum, inhalers and patches and they haven’t worked.
I have read the Allen Carr book and i think it is great and i now have more determination than ever to quit…..but i haven’ t yet.
The problem is i am so fearful of putting on weight. I know that quitting is still healthier than putting on weight but it is so ingrained in my brain.
Does anyone have any tips? Thanks.
My stepson uses all three coloured inhalers, but i cant seem to find out what the green serevent inhaler does for his asthma. Can anyone shed any light on this for me? also does taking a double dose of the brown inhaler help with a bad non productive cough?
Sorry the "brown one" is the beclometasone 50 inhaler (its in a brown caseing)
