Moderate asthma attack and recovery time?!
Question: Moderate asthma attack and recovery time!?
I`m a 33 yr old female and have slight asthma!. I have never had a really bad attack ( that meant hospitalisation)!. I had an episode of asthma on sunday night, my chest was really tight and i was very breathless and generally weak!. Went to my doctors on monday and he said i`d had a moderate attack!. I was prescribed steroids ( prednisolone) 5mg tablets to take 6 a day for a period of 5 days and told to use my inhalers!.
My breathing has eased but still feel really weak and haven`t slept well for 4 nights because of persistant coughing!. When should i expect to feel `normal` again and be able to sleep!!
Thanks to anyone who can help :-)Www@Answer-Health@Com

It depends on how bad the attack was!. Are you sick!? I'm wondering if the cough is from being sick or if the cough is from the asthma!. there is a bid difference in when the cough would go away then!. i have had a few bad attacks and i have felt tired and weak for about 5-6 days!. I'm 19 years old!. It depends on how strong your body is and how fast you can recover!. As your lungs gets better and the inflammation lessens and you can breathe clearly, your cough should go away if its related to the asthma!. make sure you get plenty of rest so your body and lungs can heal!. dont exercise too much as that may cause another attack and make you even weaker!. hope your recovery is fast! any other questions, feel free to email!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
asthma is an allergy and to fight of or avoid allergies our immune system must be high!. you still have to exercise!. swimming is the best for asthma!. just do bubbles!. your lungs will expand!. start taking vitamin b-complex to boost your immune system!. you don't fight allergies you avoid them!. well, you certainly need meds for your cough!. so get a prescription for that!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
