Paul again,i`ve had asthma since the age of 5,i actually had a chest infection this time last year and spent over a week in hospital...The basics on asthma,asthma sufferers lungs react different to the average person,when we breath,any dust or pollen in the air that ends up in our lungs,the tissue in the airways have an allergic reaction,the aiways swell up,the docs call it inflamation of the airways,causing us to weaze,then the lungs release flem,thats where the weazing comes from,if you had
asthma,your aiways in your lungs tighten up and you would weaze and cough,then you would probebly bring up flem..Thats what inhalers do,they relax the tissue in the lungs and help you to breath,i used to have ventalin,then I was changed and had solbutamol,but after the chest infection i`ve been put on a stronger inhaler called symbicort turbo inhaler,its called a protector,its a combination of 2 acting chemicals..One chemical acts like solbutomol which relaxes the tissue,and the other coats the airways and stops the dust and pollen sticking and causing inflamation of the airways..Go to your doctor and he/she can do some simple tests to find out if you have it or not,its hard for me to say you have or have`nt,as for the fast heart,i get axactly the same as you,and I also find anything phisical hard work,thats down to your anxiety ..Good luck mate
