It’s a horrible affliction, sending one to panic. I had asthma as a kid, and each time I’d get an attack, I wished I’d die. My asthma was triggered by heat and humidity. For me to get well, my whole family had to migrate to a cooler city. That serious.

I know Grace, Asthma can really torture you and more so if it becomes chronic. I hope that you don’t get it ever again.

Leena,
At least it seems to be a study that involves few people and a not well-designed. Coupled with the news re inhalers, out this month, these are wake-up calls for those with asthma - or who life with people who suffer from respiratory problems. Your site is quite helpful.

At Clean Air at Home, I’ve been writing about what I’ve discovered about air pollution in the home and how it affects our health. I am going to link to you there. Thanks!

Thanks Kare for your valuable input. Its nice to know that my site was helpful to you. I visited your blog and it has got some good information on Asthma and respiratory problems. Even I agree with you that this study might not hold true in the majority of cases. But it cannot be denied that asthma is a very traumatic condition that might drive people to contemplate ending their lives.

Very useful information.
