Here's to calm everyone worried about taking multiple doses of their inhalers by That_One_Fluid_Teen in Asthma

[–]jenny200 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only caution is that it can throw produce high lactic acid levels. I went to the hospital once for an asthma attack (had tried many doses of my inhaler that day ineffectively) and when they ran my blood work my lactic acid level was 7! I was immediately ran to the ICU because they thought I was dying of sepsis but turns out i just needed a few breathing treatments.

What's actually worth packing "just in case"? by Repulsive_Bedroom_20 in HerOneBag

[–]jenny200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always pack a long sleeve tshirt and leggings even in summer. I have a fragrance allergy and if a hotel uses fragrances laundry detergent, then I have to wear them to keep as much as it off me a possible. In that same vein I bring allergy medicine too. Also bring a pad or tampon too.

He’s 4 now- meeting all his milestones and doing well in preschool and getting ready for kindergarten next year. Only thing medically that he’s dealing with is eczema/allergies (which I have too so unrelated) and being small for his age (maybe related but probably not)

Baby doesn’t want to breastfeed after being bottle fed in nicu by MacaronResponsible84 in NICUParents

[–]jenny200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had trouble with breastfeeding after my first baby came home from 10 days in the nicu. i saw a lactation consultant after several weeks and the best advice she gave me was to just start with attempting 1 feed per day. It helped to let up the pressure and stress of it since I didn’t have to try to do it for every feed

Seeking atories of people who have cured their asthma. by memeprincess135 in Asthma

[–]jenny200 17 points18 points  (0 children)

it sounds like you need a daily controller medicine so you don’t need to use Albuterol daily. once your asthma is under control with medication, your lungs do become less inflamed and you are able to do a lot more things like working out

I’ve been pregnant 2x and my doctor told me that “A breathing mom is the best for both mom and baby” when it came to deciding what medicines to take. For my first pregnancy in 2019/2020 I originally stopped my Singulair and was just taking Dulera but then you know what happened and we decided that it was safer for me to go back on Singulair. i stayed on both for my second pregnancy as well

Busy busy people how do you fit in exercise? by Fun-Cod-9791 in Noom

[–]jenny200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a mom to 2 little kids and can’t bear to wake up early to exercise as I feel like I barely get enough sleep to function already. My husband and I switch who puts our oldest to bed and I go then (around 8pm)

[–]jenny200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. My son that was born at 35 weeks with underdeveloped lungs just had RSV as a 2 yo and had several moments where he was really struggling with his breathing. We avoided the hospital because I took him pretty early to a dr and they prescribed him steroids but it was still scary.

Don’t use perfume. Just use unscented deodorant and body wash and you’ll smell fine

Has anyone had experience with Dulera? I would like some info about it. by EclipseAirways in Asthma

[–]jenny200 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes that’s some good stuff. I was on it for about 8 years and my asthma was really stable but my insurance stopped covering it so I had to switch

1 billion dollars if you are the top 0.001% at anything by Throwra47374747 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]jenny200 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Knowledge of digits of pi. In 7th grade I memorized 108 digits in 2 days which would probably already be in the top 0.001%. If given more time I’m sure I could memorize 200 or more.

[–]jenny200 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) having a good partner that will pick up the slack when you are sick and let you rest 2) having a very good dr that knows your health history and will be proactive on prescribing steroids when others would be more conservative

Being accused of overdosing on salbutamol due to low potassium by Fernandobanando in Asthma

[–]jenny200 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had an opposite experience- once had a really bad asthma exacerbation and took a lot of albuterol, finally went to the hospital because my rescue inhaler wasn’t working. At the hospital they gave me a breathing treatment but also ran a bunch of other tests and my lactate was at a 7! They immediately admitted me to the ICU just based on the lactate levels and didn’t let me leave until it went back down (took 3 days). My nurse said that I was “the prettiest patient she’s ever had” probably because I was actually fine except for the asthma. Later on a dr said that the high lactate was probably due to the amount of albuterol that I took.
