Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I’ve been on a BIPAP machine for an asthma attack once. I thought I might die. I didn’t even have a chance to call my mom to tell her. I’ve been on QVAR 80, montelukast, albuterol rescue, and multiple rounds of prednisone since my diagnosis of adult onset severe persistent asthma at the age of 21. I’m 28 now. I had no idea how to navigate, let alone control, my diagnosis. Things that flaired my asthma: everything. Mostly eggs and wheat, but also everything. Wine made me wheeze the next day, certain foods made me wheeze the next day (sometimes the same day), and I couldn’t be trapped in an elevator with someone wearing a drop of cologne or perfume. I had never lived like this before. It was both frightening and foreign. Let me mention, I’m not an idiot. I know how the body works. I understand the mast cell response. I’m an ER nurse. But, I’m also a human being that didn’t want to be dependent on medication. Why was my body rebelling against my? I’d been fine up until the age of 21. I didn’t want to be sick. Flash forward from 21 to 26. I’d been dabbling with quercatin (a bioflavonoid found in sulfur dense plants like onions and garlic), bromaline (an enzyme found in pineapple rinds), and curcumin (the active component in turmeric. My mind jumped to a very ancient remedy for asthm. Red onion (super dense in quercatin) and honey made into a paste and consumed 2-3 times a day. Hmmmmm, maybe I just didn’t have the combo right of what I needed. Nothing like an internet search to stimulate a new idea. Breathe? I did. After three days of taking breathe as instructed I felt something lift in my chest. The costochondritis that I experienced as a result of my constant coughing still pained me on a deep breath, but the rattle was gone. I laughed so loudly without coughing it brought me to tears. I felt like I did before I got sick, free. For the past two years my inhalers have been collecting dust in a basement drawer. Maybe they are expired? I’m not sure. I haven’t checked. I still have a rescue inhaler in my car and on me at all times, mostly out of habit. I havent used it since I last refilled it from the pharmacy. I get a little congestion and tightness in my chest every now and then during allergy season, but no wheezing. To solve this I take 4 pills upon waking with 16oz of water. I take my breathe every day. If you don’t take it every day it won’t work, but blood pressure pills work the same way. Why not try it? In case you’re wondering, I still don’t eat anything with wheat or eggs. I also avoid nuts, soy, and use more natural detergents and cleaning products. However, I can drink wine without any symptoms now. Breathe? I call it, Live Again.
