There was a commercial years ago that showed a woman unable to get out enough air to blow out a match (nice allusion to smoking). The voice-over was something to the effect of<br />"This woman is experiencing an asthma attack.(Really? I thought she was practising to blow out her birthday candles.)" Then they show her after taking XYZ Brand inhaler and she's blowing out matches with ease. <br /><br />I'd call the doctor and request a lung function test (takes two minutes-you blow in a tube) if for no other reason than to set your mind at ease. Besides, if you're getting a chest cold, you might as well know about it now, rather than at three in the morning.<br /><br />Gee whiz, that sounds bossy-I'm sorry, must be my mother's ghost guiding my fingers across the keyboard again. Pretty soon I'll be admonishing strangers to "sit up straight."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
