Yeah, I have mirth induced asthma too. If I laugh too hard, I have trouble breathing, start wheezing, then a start coughing and then I need my inhaler. This is particularly an issue when I have a cold.
Damn, I was hoping this thread would have actual not nice things to say.
I mean, mine wasn't mean, but the way I was picturing it going down was.
Well, IIOY is pissed.
I'd start throwing shit but I'm too busy coughing because I'm laughing at tef's siggy and now I know that it's because I have asthma. Or allergies. Or allergy-induced asthma. Or mirth-induced constipation. Or something.
What if the pulmonolgist tells you that you have asthma?
I'd be inclined to believe it, I guess. It just seems kind of weird that I would go 34 years of my life without asthma and then suddenly get it.
I'm sorry you're dealing with this.
You may have asthma for years, and just never known it. Cough-induced asthma only been diagnosed more in the past 10-20 years or so, if I had to guess.
I say this, because I was always a cougher. Any cold resulted in a horrible cough. My mother didn't like for me to sleep with more door closed when I was younger, because I coughed so much. In hindsight, it was asthma.
I got diagnosed at 23/24. In grad school, I had bronchitis three times in one school year, plus mono (fun year let me tell you). When I moved to my new city and went to the doctor for yet another bronchitis bout, they said something's not right, and that I shouldn't automatically go from cold to bronchitis.
I did a pulmonary function test and it showed mild asthma. I keep an inhaler on me, and am no longer on preventive meds. It's almost a non-issue for me.
I have nothing nice to say about anyone or anything, really. I feel like shit for letting Jackson play Wii and watch TV most of the day - days like this make me feel like a failure mom. I HATE MYSELF AND WHOEVER MISHANDLED MY FOOD YESTERDAY.

I hate the guy with the motorcycle on my street. He leaves before 5 and usual sits in front of my house idling loudly for ever (no traffic there at that time of the day so i dont know WTF he doing) and inevitably wakes a kid up. This morning he drove away but must have forgotten something because he came back and left the bloody thing on.

Why the hell don't they have mufflers? The noise is so obnoxious.
We are living in a condo for a couple of months while our new house is being built. We are in a 3 unit building (units cover top, middle and ground floors). Everyone in this building is in a similar position as we are (using the condo for temporary housing). There are 3 parking spaces right in front our building, and then "overflow" parking behind. We and the 2 other tenants have 2 cars each. We and the upstairs tenant park 1 car in one of the front spaces and 1 car in the "overflow" section, as common courtesy. The downstairs tenant parks BOTH of his cars in the front spaces when they are open. No, they are not reserved spaces but wouldn't it be nice if we each took one space and parked one car in the overflow? Drives me BANANAS to come home and for him to have taken one of the front spots with his 2nd car, forcing me to lug children/bags/etc further. Dude, why are you hogging the parking spots??
