Last night, quick and dirty

[tamago23]

Couldn't breathe, and this was a new kind of can't-breathe, the kind where even when I was breathing as deep as I could I still felt like I wasn't getting enough air. So finally around 12:30AM I broke down and called my friend C, who came over and watched the kids (Frolic wasn't home last night, he was off at a gig), and I headed off to a hospital

yikes! glad you got the inhaler. if you're not familiar w/ ventolin, it can make your heart race like mad. If it does, then fiddle with the dosage (half breath or whatever) until you're comfortable with the results.

*hugs*

hope you get some good rest and you start feeling better soon.

Yes, this. That side effect of ventolin can be scary!

(I still don't understand why the other dr didn't give you ventolin...)

Probably because my test results indicated mild asthma, so he wanted to wait until he knew for sure what we were dealing with and figured I'd be okay in the meantime. And I probably would have been okay (I mean, I've gotten through the last six months without an inhaler), except for the Stealth Pneumonia.

Ooh, thanks for letting me know this. It would have freaked me the hell out if my heart started racing afterward.

yup, I knew it would *grins*
