When i was younger, ASthma attack only occured when i have cough. Now, not anymore. It attacks when you u least predict it. My first experience of asthma during adulthood is during my uni days. I'm allergic to alcohol~ Of coz, NOT kampai !!! But beer (at times). Symptom will be simply, i will have itchy throat, cough..., phlegm building up, then...u will hear me whining away...lol. Cascade reaction, konon~ Nobody panics!~ I'm a science student, i should know how to handle myself. Moreover, this is only mild asthma....don't even need an inhaler (yet?).
So, there are a few things i'm asthmatic to - pickled nutmeg, prawn head (especially those semi-cooked ones), alcohol ( high % only) and garlic ( the skin only). Today i discovered...i think im allergic to the raw ones as well. OMG!~ My bak kut teh with lotsa lotsa minced raw garlic. I googled and found that it may triggers asthma.....sigh...that is not all that i found..
Chocolate and strawberries can trigger asthma too~
I pray....that they wont cause any prob to me...plsssssss
Do you know that asthma is a type of allergy too? So, how to treat allergy? When i was young, my mouth will swell after taking prawns and crabs. WHAT? No prawns and crabs forever?? NO WAY!!! I still take prawns and crabs, but in moderate portion. Overtime, it heals :) that is how i treat asthma. (Pls note that my solution is not scientifically proven to treat asthma)
