@knsasmyhme‍ Hi there,

It’s very scary when we can’t breathe..especially now with everything going on..

I have leaned that I have panic attacks which have been making my asthma worse..I learned to do breathing exercises, walking is good..but once our asthma flares up, it takes a while to get back to controlling it..

I removed all carpet from my home, got a air purifier and only use natural cleaning products..

also drinking ginger, peppermint tea is good..get a fern plant, helps us breath better in the home..vacuum your mattress 3x’s a week..

Hope this helps..you will feel better soon..

Kind regards,

Bella
