Day started good, afternoon was not so. Asthma acting up. Too many drugs, yoga breathing didn't help much. Struggled through the day @ work, made it. Once home, more drugs, shaking from the drugs, still raggy breathing.
Went to the corner store, bought beer. Odd as it sounds 2 or 3 beers will calm both the shaking and my breathing down. 3 beers later I feel somewhat better. Relaxes the muscles and lets the drugs work. Checked the allergy sites, mold is on it's way up, in the high moderate, for me not nice. Will be in bed early, not doing much tonite. No exercise as it will aggravate as still huffing and puffing but better.

Will be ok. Used to happen often, now not so. Have worked with my doc to control and also eliminate triggers. Something set it off at work and downhill from there. No idea what, the mold count has probably helped it continue. Will be in bed by 8:00. Drugs before, valerian to calm down irritated nerve pathways, eucalyptus also to help me breathe. Hate the drugs, necessity.

Hate that you are going through that - but be careful who you tell about the beer cure. Some of us may suddenly come down with a case of asthma - LOL.

Beer, not the cure LOL. A side affect of the drugs is shakiness, reminds me of early Parkinson. When I can't get it controlled my whole body tenses up so it's harder to breathe slow and deeply which helps relax the bronchial spasms. For me a couple beers helps with the tension.
Ammittai, hope you are doing better. I can't imagine trying to breathe with lots of smoke.
