I read that "shallow breathing" is good for pulling you out of an asthma attack.....and have tried it....and it worked well for me. The natural response to an attack is to try and breathe deep....next time you get distressed.....not a full blown asthma attack.....but a little distressed.....try shallow quick breathing.....it has worked well for me. Diet and exercise also work well for me. I don't eat processed, packaged foods.....and eat organic when ever possible. While under a doc's supervision I started an exercise program of mainly resistance training...but with little or no rest 'tween sets to push the cardio. I also started bike riding.....built up to two 60 mile rides per week. Those two things made a huge improvement in my asthma, as I have not been hospitalized since I began.....20 years ago. I have weaned myself off all my meds with the exception of Serrivent......which Glaxo Smith Kline just added a warning ...as it can cause an attack and death.......nice......a medicine for asthma that can trigger an attack and cause death. But they have enough money and pull that they are not having to do a recall. Hence my questions about CS. I don't trust big pharma and am trying to free myself from them. Thank you all for the input ron
