I just found out I have asthma. My problem is that my enhaler I received does not seem to be working. I wake up at least three times in the middle of the night barely breathing, I feal as if I am slowly suffocating. It is so bad at times I almost can not control my bladder. Please Help.

It sounds like you are not appropriately medicated yet. You need more than just a rescue inhaler. (I’m assuming you’re taking Albuterol and not buying Primatene mist from the store. Do NOT use Primatene or any other over the counter asthma remedy).

Waking up 3 times a night is totally unacceptable. Make an appointment with your doctor and tell him/her exactly what is happening. You also need to be prescribed some sort of steroidal such as Flovent or Asthmacort. It is also possible that you have allergy induced asthma (do you have animals in the house) and would benefit from a daily allergy pill such as Singular.

I have been asthmatic all of my life and was in your situation at one point. I just worked with my doctor until we got my prescriptions right. I’m fine now. Just get that appointment scheduled and get to a professional. Asthma attacks should be taken seriously and you should not have to spend one more night like this.

My doctor prescribed allergy medication for my asthma, and it is not very effective. My inhaler is empty. Does anyone know of any easy and effective ways to make breathing easier??

There are two popular Natural asthma treatments, one is from the Middle East and has been a primary treatment for asthma and allergies. A traditional extract blend taken with honey includes black cumin, chamomile, cinnamon, cloves, rosemary, sage, spearmint, thyme and other herbs. Natural asthma treatments have herbs that contain antioxidants, and Black cumin seed, rosemary and thyme are known to inhibit the contractions of tracheal smooth muscle that is stimulated by histamine and acetylcholine. In Asia one natural asthma cure is a blend known as Saiboku-To is used clinically for asthma treatment and contains 10 herbs like ginger, Korean ginseng, magnolia, Baikal and licorice. In Japan , 40 asthma patients were treated with Saiboku-To for six to 24 months, and all were able to greatly reduce their steroidal asthma medications.20 Saiboku-To have also been shown to inhibit lipoxygenase.

When you’re looking for Natural asthma treatments on the Internet, make sure you’re not allergic to any of the natural ingredients themselves, which would defeat the purpose. Always take small doses and one at a time than recommended if you’ve never taken something before to make sure your body will not have an adverse affect from anything. Just because something is natural does not mean it can’t be dangerous to you

I know there are many home remedies, herbal and such that are said to cure certain illnesses. Does anyone have any ideas?

As an asthma educator, I do not recommend any of them. They are not scientiically proven. Any asthma specialist is going to have you follow the athma evidence based guidelines 3rd version (EPR⎯3) or GINA guidelines (international) to control your asthma.

The cold weather is causing me bad bronchospasms. Its hard to suck in air. I have medicine but I don’t like using my medicine any more than I need to.

Is there anything that I can eat or drink regularly to help alleviate this? Not as a replacement for my medicine, just something to help it, like some kind of herbal tea, natural dietary supplement, etc. 10 points for your help! I appreciate it!

I’m an asthma sufferer just like you. Sometimes I find when I am having trouble breathing, I take a hot shower and the steam from the shower actually helps me breath better. Especially when I am not sick. When I am sick and I get bronchitis, I feel that the cold air helps me. There is no surefire way to know this is going to work until you try it. But it works wonders for me! Hope this helps you!

I went to my doctor due to the asthma symptoms, and he told me that it would go away when the pollen levels get a touch lower.

He told me to try some home treatment and remedies, like honey, in the meantime, and I wanted to see more suggestions.

Thanks for the help!

Well caffiene is a mild bronchodilator so you may try drinking soda or coffee. Keep in mind that this doesnt work fast, it takes time for it to dissolve in your bloodstream. Also, you may try Oregano, I have heard from several of my patient that it helps them. There is an Oregano supplement called Oregomax that you can buy at most vitamin stores.

My husband is having major asthma problems… he’ll go to the doctor tomorrow, but in the meantime, do you have any home remedies that may help? He’s drinking green tea with honey and lemon right now. Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks.

try ginger ale

My mom has had bronchitis lately and it turned into asthma. I believe that I have caught bronchitis from her. Are there any natural remedies that will help this? I have had the pneumonia shot so it should not develop into pneumonia. I absolutely hate being on antibiotics so any other options would be great. It is the first day so it should be very easily treated.

well it is a good thing that u got the pneumonia shot , but the reality is that just because you got the shot doesn’t mean that you can get pneumonia and for asthma there’s no natural cure for it. you really need to see a doc and get some chest x-rays

My sister has asthma and I really want to have different ways to help her. So, I really need remedies that are proved or tried.

Believe it or not, dairy is a huge allergen and can cause severe respiratory issues. If she’s really desperate have her cut ALL dairy from her diet for 3 weeks. No milk, cheese, ice cream, cottage cheese, etc. It changed my life within 2 weeks and my aunt got off her daily respirator when she gave up cheese.

Good luck!
