All asthma is not the same. As a result, a new study shows many people with asthma are not helped by corticosteroid medication prescribed to control their breathing problems.

I have exercise induced asthma. It's not a very glorifying name for sure, rather insulting actually.

I use my inhaler only two-three times a year. It seems to work though.

I'd never heard of that, Chris. Does it take a lot to bring it on that way?

Not really. From the name you would think it happens when I exercise but that has never happened. Sometimes it comes on out of nowhere but for the most part flowers or strong smelling candles bring it on.
