state of the sick

so i went to the dr. my cold triggered an asthma attack that started on saturday night. i have been taking roosters abuterol but it hasn't really been helping so i thought it wasn't asthma. WRONG. it was just such an extreme attack that the  inhaler wasn't helping. good thing i didnt get all dead. apparently it was a pretty intense one. sure i woke up not being able to breathe and have been having a hard time - but hey thats why i called the dr right? so i am on a steroid to calm the inside of the lung swelling. i am still coughing like a sonofabitch. breathing is still very challenging. but supposedly i will feel better soon. i did a nebulizer breathing treatment at the dr's office. it almost helped but seems to have worn off. good times.

you would think but so far it just feels the same and maybe a bit worse after last night. i am on prednisone though so maybe it'll take a few days for it to kick in.
