Apparently, now I have asthma.

Post Reply New Topic

I went to a walk-in clinic yesterday because I was coughing, and every time I coughed, I felt an intense and sharp pain in both of my lungs.

After an hour of tests, they told me I had asthma and they prescribed me an inhaler.

My mother is bitching at me and telling me not to listen to what the medical professionals said (because, naturally, in her own mind, she always knows what is best for me). I told her I felt a sharp and intense pain in my chest, she responded by saying, "That's not how asthma works according to what I have heard!"

So, where should I go from here, I wonder?

When they weighed me, I came in at 260 lbs. Which means I should work on losing weight no matter what happens. That's a lot, even for a guy as tall as I am (6'4").

But I am wondering how I should maintain whatever it is I am dealing with. This was the opinion of a walk-in medical clinic, so it's not the most reliable source.

I also have noticed a few bumps forming on my arms, with some swelling around them. One of the bumps I have had for about 15 years, but now I am noticing a few similar ones popping up. I wonder if I should be concerned about that or not.....

Well, that's my health drama for the time being. I usually don't have health issues (outside of the psychiatric ones, which are being managed).

I've never heard of asthma causing lungs to feel intense pain so I'm with your mom on this one. I would look into food/environmental allergies/sensitivities and elliminate those.

As for your bumps, you are already concerned about these since you've posted about it. I'd go and have it checked out. You don't want to be dealing with cancerous issues, either.

Try to take some homeopathy treatment because in school days I too had this same problem after taking continuous homeopathy treatment now it is cured.
