How many of you have asthma?

Adult-onset asthma is when the asthma came on anytime after the age of 20.

ASD = Autism Spectrum Disorders: Autism, Asperger's Syndrome or PDD-NOS

No asthma but extremely allergic to many allergens (atopic) and suffer from eczema. Once went into anaphylactic shock due to sudden allergic reaction to ampicillin.

I just had my first asthma attack ever on New Years Eve which resulted in my first ambulance ride to the ER ever :-(
All this happened after my first kiss with my boyfriend so it wasn't all bad :wink:

I had quite a few allergies as a child and lots of respiratory infections. When I got older and smoked for years I ended up being diagnosed with asthma. I quit smoking and treated it for a year or so and it got better and then dumb*ss me started back. I'm all about quitting and starting back I guess. I don't have any respiratory problems now.
