  3 1 I'm king of the asthmatics. That I am alive at all is amazing. I'm allergic to nearly everything (except dust mites), have been intubated and my parents flown in from Jersey because I was pretty much dead from my asthma. Deep coma, anyway. Some days I have to stay in bed with an air cleaner and prednisone at the ready though flovent has been a god send. I use advair 250/50 and spike it up to 500/50 or even 750/50 or more when things are bad. Monday morning call Dr. Kirtland of Virginal Mason hospital at (206) 223-6622 and make an appointment. This doc is awesome. Virginia Mason is awesome. Best doc and big hospital experience I've ever had. Really. And all testing necessary can be done at V M which is a big deal. Good luck.

Sacrelicious commented 5 months ago | Report 0 0 Thanks! It was touch a go for a while there... Tom commented 5 months ago | Report 0 0 Wow, that's some intense asthma!! Glad you know your regimen for keeping the worst at bay when it's flared up. And that you have the insurance to take care of it!! I really appreciate the doc lead. I'll give him a call as soon as I have my voice back. Got a nice cold settled into my throat as a last-day-of-class gift from a classmate. :) Thanks again! Cassandra Hunter commented 5 months ago | Report 0 0 Advair changed my life! It is nothing less than a miracle of modern science. Kip Waddle commented 5 months ago | Report 3 0 ...and who gave me a "thumbs down"??!! Virginia Mason hater I guess? Tom commented 5 months ago | Report 0 0 Mmmm, that's what I was assuming. I'll give you a couple more to even things out. :) Cassandra Hunter commented 5 months ago | Report 0 0 A couple more thumb up, that is. Clarification...
