So, I think I've mentioned it before that I have asthma and have had it since I was an infant. So, for the longest time I have been taking Advair and it's worked in the past. I haven't had to use my rescue inhaler in years.

When I was doing the whole job with no insurance thing, I stayed off of Advair. It was hugely expensive. But recently, I got back on. This morning it kicked in and my body is experiencing a change. I am getting more air into me. I can feel it. It's so much easier to breathe, I guess I didn't realize that I wasn't getting enough air in before. I also slept better last night, too. I wonder if this will help my apnea-like symptoms. I know I slept better last night because I actually had a dream I remembered. That hasn't happened in awhile.

Anyway, I thought I'd share. It doesn't feel like I'm at the top of an Alp trying hard to breathe now. It feels pretty great.
