Recently, I've noticed that when I have an asthma attack, especially exercise-induced, my old inhaler doesn't seem to work.
So my doctor decided to bust out the big guns, in steroid form. I take it in the morning and at night, and it's supposed to prevent attacks during the day. It's too early to tell if it's working, but I can tell you one thing: This stuff is pretty much speed.
I'm hopped up for about two hours after taking it. If I take it too soon before bed, I toss and turn and can't get to sleep. In the morning, it's as effective as a shot of espresso.
I also hear it has cocaine-like withdrawal symptoms. But I'll get there when I get there. Right now, just give me my drugs.
Now excuse me while I go run laps around the newsroom to release some inhaler-induced energy.
So glad you can breathe again! And that purple is so pretty.
