Adult ADHD daughter and asthma
Naw, just don't want to do work.
My daughter ran in here and said "let's get hyper!!!", so now I'm outta breathe, too... (I had to wash chocolate ice cream off her face with some water in a cup) hehe.
D'o you had me so confused! I was like, wow, she joined in Dec of '03 and is now making her first post! Obviously she's not the one with ADD, there's no way she would remember her username and password!Hei Hei,
Sorry!

Guess I got a little bored.
Revival of the dead.
do u are bored arent ya? My 26 year old daughter has just been diagnosed with asthma and isreacting badly to medications. She does not take meds for ADHD.
Does anyone have any experience with this type of scenerio?Well, I am a 26 yo guy with ADD, Asthma, and a bit of medical training... Couple of things not spoken in your post, type or severity of asthma, nor degree of ADD. I am not medicating for ADD and have mild asthma that is more prevelent at the gym and what not. I have not noticed affects of my asthma meds as it relates to ADD, but will look more carefully now. For asthma, I am on Albuteron prn (as needed) and find it is doing the job. I do not get asthma attacks, but so get wheezy when working out. I too did not like some of the other stuff that they tried to get me to take of asthma on a regular basis (hard to do anyway for us adders). Asthma can be caused by many things, try to get to the bottom of the cause rather than treating the symptoms. Also, I know how bad I was when starting meds for ADD, she might need to start with smaller dosages. A little engineering can make this happen with the inhalers. Just a thought.I happen to have ADD/ADHD and asthma. I take a lot of different medications and to the doctors I am a human guinea pig
I take (for my asthma)proventil inhaler(it always has to come in 2 because I either lose it or I have to put it somewhere because I forget to take the first one with me). I have abuterol sulfate drops that go in my SVN machine and I have advair. Advair is really good for asthmatics no matter how bad because it decreases the attacks.It seems like I am constantly in the hospital because I have a cold,bronchitis,or something else that triggers my asthma. 
I get it because it runs in my family. Not because my mom smoked,drank or did drugs when she was pregnant with me. There are a lot of things to make the asthma bearable but somedays it just plain hurts. I've had it so long that sometimes I can tell when I'm about to go into an asthma attack. For my ADD(obviously as you can tell)I'm not taking anything for it. But I have people I can turn to in case I get my headaches from overstimulation or if anything else happens. I got told that I can carry around an ADD notebook in case I forget to do something. I just write it down as soon as I have the thought(once again,doesn't cure it but helps the symptoms)If you have any questions about asthma(I don't know it all but I've dealt with it for 15yrs.so I know some)you can pm me. And if you have any tips about ADD/ADHD then please share with me
