I have a rescue inhaler. Primary trigger is smoke. Also have an allergy to some perfumes that also triggers my asthma.I tell people that I outgrew asthma. They say that's not possible, but I was afflicted with it all through my childhood into my mid- to late 30s.
Like a dumba$$, I was also smoking, starting at 18. I took prescribed medicine daily for my asthma and then they made it over the counter, so it was easier to get. But then years later they outlawed it altogether, the only thing that worked every time on my asthma, because people were using it to make meth. So I started taking the next best thing, Primatene tablets, which worked, but not nearly as effectively as the other meds. It was OK, however, when combined with the mist. Then they outlawed the tablets too for the same reason.
A few years before they outlawed it, however, I quit smoking and suddenly, I didn't need any type of asthma medicine anymore. I still kept some around to make sure, but I haven't taken any Primatene tablets or mist since. I haven't had an asthma attack since, not even a tightness in the chest, and I'm in my 70s now and have no breathing problems.
From what I've found out, once you have asthma, it's for life. But I'm living proof that's not the case.
Other than that, we have all been pretty healthy lately except the son who is a Covid long hauler and he has been sick enough the last three and half years for all of us.
