So it's been a challenging August so far regarding my allergic asthma.
My levalbuterol tartrate HFA inhaler (only one my crappy insurance covers) isn't helping at all.
I mean it's like breathing in nothing.
I got an RX for albuterol yesterday (and used Good RX) and it seems a bit better.
Not great but a little bit more relief.
I don't want to use a steroid inhaler or steroid pills (the urgent care doctor wanted me to get the steroid pills).
Do any of you use a nebulizer? I have used one a few times at work and I found them helpful. I think I should get an RX for that to try next. I have an appointment with an allergist in 2 weeks so want to arm myself with knowledge about this topic before I go.
I used to take singulair decades ago. Do any of you find that helpful?
Just wondering what those of you who have asthma use and if this August (for me in the NE) has been worse for you than usual?
Thanks.
