I've had a rough year. I was in the hospital 3 times in the first 5 months of this year and the last hospital stay the found I had congestive heart failure and I was sent home on oxygen. I just saw my pulminary specialist this past Tuesday and went through several pulminary tests and came through with flying colors and now I don't need the oxygen any longer. Woohoo!! I share in your victory and happiness Jaquie! I love seeing you so happy!
Jaquie....here's a piece of advice that my mom gave me ....when life treats you like a game, don't give up and let it win; show it how the game is played
I have been dealing with idiopathic hypersomnia. I have finally been allowed to work 3rd shift after 4 years. These last 2 weeks have been amazing. I have been awake and alert. I had no idea what that meant and didn’t understand what it was like to be “normal”. Small steps.
This is the first week in 4 years without my daughter having home therapies. It is so relaxing and mind blowing! She had 14 sessions each week so it's really so much time that has been freed up.
I hate those tests so much. They always tell me to keep blowing but i have to stop after 2 sec because my lungs are just empty. I have to do them every year, twice a year. My victory is, being able to walk again!! After months in a wheelchair and not being able to walk, I'm finaly able to walk again!! I'm still pretty dependant of my wheelchair and walker and i can only walk independently for an hour a day. But still, big improvement! AND I'm able to walk the stairs on my own again! I've had to go up the stairs sitting only for months and always needed to have someone with me. Now i can walk up the stairs again 2 times a day and go sitting when i can't walk. But all of that is without supervision which is great!
Congratulations on some good news Jaquie! My good news of the week is getting my daughter back to college and her ESA letter approved for her dog so she can have him at her apartment. Getting my son back in high school has proved a bit more challenging, but I'll think about that next week too. 😉
Hi, Jaquie! I’m a long time lurker on your channel, and I loved the idea of lifting each other up so, here’s mine... I have gone back to school! I started online biology 101 yesterday, and I feel like I can really take it on. It’s been actually enjoyable to read through and take pretests. I’m not even using DSS this time, I don’t think I’ll need it for online courses. Wish me luck, and keep being awesome, all of you!
Big victory for me today, my blood sugar when I woke up this morning was 6.4 (115mg/dl). Recently I've been waking up with levels around 9.5 (171), but I think having an early dinner really helped! I'm a type 1 diabetic, and I loved your video with how you store all your medical supplies. I've bought a container that stores my spare infusion sites and insulin reservoirs, and can easily take that with me while travelling. Keep aiming for the little and big victories!
On your drive to breakfast Judd is like “what?”😴 lol. That’s a huge answer to a lot of people of how Judd feels about their lifestyle. It’s completely normal to him! He loves you so much.
I’m so happy that you are having such good results. I love Xolair! This summer I have been able to get back to my normal active life style again well until our Az monsoon storms caught me outside and caused a flare up 2 weeks ago. I am going through a flare up right now, but it is nothing compared to the way it was last year. I have been off work for the past 2weeks because of it, but I feel like I’m getting stronger and hope to be back to work again soon. Right now talking carrying an ongoing conversation and laughing as I normally do wears me out and I end up taking a nap after. It happened today. My home nurse came to give me my Xolair shot and we talked and laughed and by time our visit was done I was wore out. I just let my body have what it needed and rested. I woke up and tried to do some house keeping, but like you have been, I’m limited right now due to the flair up. I vacuumed my office, hallway and our living room. It took me quite a while to do and several breaks and another nap, but I got it done! Last year that would have been a no go. One room would have been all day and the breaks. Keep on keeping on!
My recent victory was walking into the shopping centre from the carpark to use their bathroom ... and I didn't use my walker! Very unsettling but a huge achievement :D
I was able to go out today and did a 2 hour walk around my town! Normally this kills my legs and spine after 10-20 minutes, but for some reason, today was just not like that, even if I regret it tomorrow, I’m proud of this! I also said yes to a job interview and it’s on Monday, normally doing interviews would make me anxious to the point I wouldn’t leave my house, and although of course I’m still extremely anxious, I’m still proud I said yes!
Yesterday I walked from friends house to Sainsbury’s and back which is a 5min walk and by the time I got back I had to lay down because of the pain in my legs
Congratulations 🎊🎉🎈🍾. Chronic illness sucks. I’m heading to dr today due to extreme nausea and dizziness.not sure if its my cancer causing it, my meds, what ever . But I get what you mean about chronic illness. I will do a video for my channel later. But its always exciting when something FINALLY goes right. Wishing you the best.
So glad you’re doing better with your asthma! I used to have super bad asthma that I had to get 4 chest tubes from a super bad asthma attack. But now I don’t have to take a daily asthma inhale. Love you! 💗
Yay! This is great that your PFT results are improving. This is one of the tests that I dread because it takes me awhile to feel like I can catch my breath afterwards. Thank God for your improvement, I’m so happy for you! Keep showing the world that you are a warrior and survivor. GREAT JOB JAQUIE!!! 🤗
YAY! Love that the Xolair shots are improving your health in many ways! Always great to get some steps forward and improve your life, even in a small way.
My success involved a recent series of cortisone shots in my back which I get periodically for pain. So. Felling less painful I guess my achievement for the week! I'm glad the med is helping you w asthma even if not combatting every issue as effectively as you'd like. As you've implied small victories are important!
Jaquie I’m so happy that things are looking up for you with your asthma. I also have asthma. It was very severe when I was a small child, but my symptoms have been almost non existent in my 20s. I still have my inhaler to use when I get sick or my allergies are severe (my asthma is allergy induced), and have used it occasionally over the years. I have always used a spacer with my inhaler, and I was curious if there was a reason why you don’t use one. I’ve always been told to use one because it ensures that I get the full dosage of medication, and it helps prevent thrush. If you doctor hasn’t mentioned it, you may want to ask them about it. Of course you and your doctor know what’s best for you, so please don’t take this as me telling you what you should be doing. Also, great job with those PFTs! Those things are the worst! It’s so great when your numbers look good, and you definitely deserve this good news!
You’re amazing Jaquie! You’re right...it’s important to focus on the victories as well. I would say my victory has been with my gastroparesis. I had a pyloroplasty a year ago and am doing so much better. I still have flareups and still have a G tube for venting, and every 3 months my doc does Botox in the area of my stomach where the food is always found to be retained during my endoscopies, but I’m at the point where I’m going back to work per Diem and I’m excited about life again. Most of my other conditions, minus my endometriosis, are under decent control too, but we’re working on the endo. Onwards and upwards!!
I won the 5 month battle to get set to an infusion center for IV saline. Then I’ve been dealing with stomach bug or MCAS flare that’s kinda undoing any benefit from the saline. But I’ve survived long enough for doctor week which kicks off tomorrow with a new doctor visit. Then a follow up with my specialist, a new allergy doctor and a cardiologist follow up next week. I’m also a bit surprised by how easy it was to schedule an appointment with the geneticist (could’ve seen him next Thursday).
I'm so glad you're doing well!!! I am happy because my physical therapist thinks that my pelvic pain that is somewhat random could be connected to some issues with my upper abdominal muscles, which we just found out about this problem 2wks ago. Apparently the muscles around my stomach don't move or at least not the way they are supposed to. I was thrilled to find a way to treat this & the treatment seems to be working some.
Good job Jaquie! It's wonderful to see you so happy. Learning to celebrate little victories seems to be the theme today. I've been learning that and the Frey Life talked about it too. Let's do it ✌
Praise the LORD! YAY!!! I'm so happy for you, Jaquie! That was incredible! I pray that other successes will follow, and I'm looking forward to celebrating those with you as well :)
You are one brave person Jaquie. I’m glad you are feeling better and that the hospital didn’t stop you from your adventures. Go out and have the best adventure you can get. Your fans on TH-cam are happy to see you well again👍
I auditioned to sing in a Karaoke contest at the New Mexico State fair. I haven't preformed in all least six year, since my health started going down hill. The audition was almost three hours away EDS and long car rides not friends and everything that could go wrong getting there did but I had the entire crowd clapping and singing along. I made it through the audition and will be singing at the 80th Annual New Mexico State fair in the third largest Karaoke contest in the US.
My victory is a diagnosis finally figuring out why I am exhausted all the time and so out of it. It's hard dealing with new things that keep happening because of one diagnosis of a hormone disorder and finding out more and more things that it's doing to my body. But now that we know about this one we can take steps to get me back to how I was when I was working the nursing floor. Fingers crossed I get to go back to work after three years!!
You deserve good news after that hospital stay! My various chronic illnesses have been kicking my butt (moving is the worst) but I'm reminding myself that getting to live in one of my favorite cities with my fiance is going to be worth every bit of struggle, stress, and effort. Lots of love. ❤️
Congrats on your victory with your test! I'm trying to get back on the Migraine Miracle diet because it's helped in the past. I'm struggling but am trying to cut things out slowly and have had some small successes with days I've not given in and drank a soda. Like you say 'Keep moving forward'.
Glad your asthma is getting better! I have the same type (together with like 10 other chronic illnesses and another 6 allergies and still stuff in testing. *sigh*) and I know how awful those coughing fits can be. Hopefully my service pup can start helping me soon, like your wonderful Harlow (I'm getting a mini American Shepherd seizure dog :) ) Keep moving forward!
this one is my friends. She has severe non epileptic seizures. They are still looking for the cause and trying to control them and can have multiple a day. Since they started getting bad she has had one day without them and that day is a victory and celebration. Even more so since it was the day she could desperately do without them.
I have cough variant asthma as well but my spirometry tests are always normal and always have been. I heard that can be common with CVA? But it makes everything pretty frustrating for trying to treat it and try to figure out what's working. My asthma has been awful lately because the west coast of America is on fire, though.
Here where I live in Roanoke Rapids they all ask for paperwork we tell them there's no such thing but they don't believe us so we had to lie to get a place to live.
Omg yay! Congrats on the test! I keep rethinking the xolair since you’ve been chatting about it on your videos. I was so afraid of it but I may have to talk to my allergist about it again!
I caught myself exhaling & inhaling right along with you.......PFT's are hard work!!! I am so happy that you don't have to take your maintenance inhaler on a daily basis. Great news!!! 🙏🏻🤗❤️
Yay I’m so happy your Asthma is getting so much better that’s such a big excitement 🤩!!! Today I managed to go outside for a bit with my reverse walker ; certainly was a beautiful day 🌷🦓💜!!!
Today was the first day in a VERY long time that I didnt have really bad pain at work. It was only and little bit and I was able to complete my shift withought being in pain to the point of feeling like crying. I'm trying new methods to help with pain and I found one that works. :)
😲 Jaquie I think I spotted you and Harlow in a video on The Pet Collectives Facebook page. It was entitled, appropriately, “Lil Heroes”. I would love to know for sure if that was you. As always wishing you the best and sending much ♥️
I finally went to see an Endodontic to get started on some oral surgery procedures I really need done. I am terrified of dentists and I walk all over my pain tolerance (as I like to say it, aka I have zero pain tolerance).
My last labs show my liver counts almost normal after them staying stable at high numbers since 2015 when I spent 18 days in Oct that year due to going septic. Out of three test well over all my normal test really all were normal but one but it was only7 points from normal!!! I've even went longer then normal with out any infections or needing my inhaler. I found out last year the coughing fits I'd been having that keep leading to bronchitis was actually couch varent asthma. I began being more proactive in finding the causes of all my symptoms then just treating them as they came. I'm doing better then I was now that we have my migraines and triggers sorted out. My meds sorted out where I'm taking less of the meds that were not effective and more effective meds because the doctors that I now see changed most of what my PCP had proscribed to ones that would better treat my health problems.
Oh my word these tests are the death of me XD I have such a hard time with them :'D I'm glad you had such a good result in these tests though, that's AMAZING!!!
And that would be why on the hospital Respiratory ward that I work on, we often get PFT results sent back to us with a hand written note of "good effort".
I’m going back to school and I’m also celebrating the fact that I got a guide dog named Willis he’s the best and he’s have been helping me going back to school animals of 40 years old going back to school so as a big too big victories definitely win-win for you as well I’m so happy that you don’t have any asthma well I guess you’re still struggling? But I’m so happy for you jaquie u
Last year I had to take the test, found out I did have asthma now I wonder how long I've had this because I was 23 when I found out... My parents keep telling me I don't have asthma even with my test results
Hi Jaquie, that's great results! So happy for you. I have cEDS POTS and Mast Cell too so I love your videos, they've been so helpful and encouraging. Do you know if xolair would help chronic hives from MCAS? Is it good for reducing IgE mediated allergies with food?
I literally just got out of bed. I was supposed to go to school but when I woke up, my body just told me to sleep more. I don’t have a favor but my colds suck and it’ll trigger my asthma :(
I have exercise, laugher, and environmental irritants (cleaning products, cigarettes, fragrances, deodorants! Even food allergies.....or pollen allergies) induced asthma. I cough....it’s a hacking cough that if if goes on long enough I get this weird metallic taste in my mouth. They just had to give me a spacer because my rescue inhaler started to make me cough and choke violently.....I guess from the powder hitting my throat.
Dear Chronically Jaquie Hello my name is Nikki and I’m Chronically sick myself I was diagnosed with asthma Gastropersis and Fibromyalgia after almost 20 years and I was wondering what or how can I maintain an appetite there are many weeks I can go without food I struggle everyday with no energy poor appetite and just feeling sick 24/7 any advice

Jaquie....here's a piece of advice that my mom gave me ....when life treats you like a game, don't give up and let it win; show it how the game is played
heather stokes and gp which is my game right now loves to play a hard game. I'm not giving up though.
It's not just life in my case. It's people. But that's a whole different story.
Your mom has great advice! Reminds me of 'Listen. I wish I could tell you it gets better. But, it doesn't get better. YOU get better.' - Joan Rivers
Yay Jacquie!!!!!
I am so happy for you.You are such a positive and sweet person.Having chronic illness myself,it is so comforting to watch your channel.
today I managed to not freak out about my exam results and I was able to cope with my OCD
That is GREAT! :D
faye I have OCD too so I know how hard that can be. Nice job!
Well done!!
congrats!
That's just awesome! My OCD wins a lot but when you can conquer it it feels amazing! That's a huge win in my book!
I have been dealing with idiopathic hypersomnia. I have finally been allowed to work 3rd shift after 4 years. These last 2 weeks have been amazing. I have been awake and alert. I had no idea what that meant and didn’t understand what it was like to be “normal”. Small steps.
That is amazing! So happy for you! I can empathize with being to sleepy you can hardly function.
👏 CONGRATULATIONS! I understand struggling to to first sleep and then stay awake! Small steps and be easy on yourself❤️
This is the first week in 4 years without my daughter having home therapies. It is so relaxing and mind blowing! She had 14 sessions each week so it's really so much time that has been freed up.
I hate those tests so much. They always tell me to keep blowing but i have to stop after 2 sec because my lungs are just empty. I have to do them every year, twice a year. My victory is, being able to walk again!! After months in a wheelchair and not being able to walk, I'm finaly able to walk again!! I'm still pretty dependant of my wheelchair and walker and i can only walk independently for an hour a day. But still, big improvement! AND I'm able to walk the stairs on my own again! I've had to go up the stairs sitting only for months and always needed to have someone with me. Now i can walk up the stairs again 2 times a day and go sitting when i can't walk. But all of that is without supervision which is great!
👍👏🙌
Congratulations on some good news Jaquie! My good news of the week is getting my daughter back to college and her ESA letter approved for her dog so she can have him at her apartment. Getting my son back in high school has proved a bit more challenging, but I'll think about that next week too. 😉

Hi, Jaquie! I’m a long time lurker on your channel, and I loved the idea of lifting each other up so, here’s mine... I have gone back to school! I started online biology 101 yesterday, and I feel like I can really take it on. It’s been actually enjoyable to read through and take pretests. I’m not even using DSS this time, I don’t think I’ll need it for online courses. Wish me luck, and keep being awesome, all of you!
Big victory for me today, my blood sugar when I woke up this morning was 6.4 (115mg/dl). Recently I've been waking up with levels around 9.5 (171), but I think having an early dinner really helped! I'm a type 1 diabetic, and I loved your video with how you store all your medical supplies. I've bought a container that stores my spare infusion sites and insulin reservoirs, and can easily take that with me while travelling. Keep aiming for the little and big victories!
On your drive to breakfast Judd is like “what?”😴 lol. That’s a huge answer to a lot of people of how Judd feels about their lifestyle. It’s completely normal to him! He loves you so much.
Ha, that is a really good point! This is just our "normal." But we were more excited about breakfast than the PFT :P
My success today was that the special needs student im working with sat at circle and had snack with the rest of the class!
I’m so happy that you are having such good results.
I love Xolair! This summer I have been able to get back to my normal active life style again well until our Az monsoon storms caught me outside and caused a flare up 2 weeks ago.
I am going through a flare up right now, but it is nothing compared to the way it was last year.
I have been off work for the past 2weeks because of it, but I feel like I’m getting stronger and hope to be back to work again soon.
Right now talking carrying an ongoing conversation and laughing as I normally do wears me out and I end up taking a nap after. It happened today. My home nurse came to give me my Xolair shot and we talked and laughed and by time our visit was done I was wore out. I just let my body have what it needed and rested.
I woke up and tried to do some house keeping, but like you have been, I’m limited right now due to the flair up. I vacuumed my office, hallway and our living room. It took me quite a while to do and several breaks and another nap, but I got it done!
Last year that would have been a no go. One room would have been all day and the breaks.
Keep on keeping on!
My recent victory was walking into the shopping centre from the carpark to use their bathroom ... and I didn't use my walker! Very unsettling but a huge achievement :D
Congratulations that’s HUGE!!! I struggle so much without my frame too so I can relate! Well done!!
Congratulations on your asthma test. So happy for a good thing today.
I was able to go out today and did a 2 hour walk around my town! Normally this kills my legs and spine after 10-20 minutes, but for some reason, today was just not like that, even if I regret it tomorrow, I’m proud of this! I also said yes to a job interview and it’s on Monday, normally doing interviews would make me anxious to the point I wouldn’t leave my house, and although of course I’m still extremely anxious, I’m still proud I said yes!
Yesterday I walked from friends house to Sainsbury’s and back which is a 5min walk and by the time I got back I had to lay down because of the pain in my legs
Wow. Your on a great path. Keep being positive. Ily
Thank you, I agree! There are wins and losses, but I choose to focus on the victories :D
Congratulations 🎊🎉🎈🍾. Chronic illness sucks. I’m heading to dr today due to extreme nausea and dizziness.not sure if its my cancer causing it, my meds, what ever . But I get what you mean about chronic illness. I will do a video for my channel later. But its always exciting when something FINALLY goes right. Wishing you the best.
So glad you’re doing better with your asthma! I used to have super bad asthma that I had to get 4 chest tubes from a super bad asthma attack. But now I don’t have to take a daily asthma inhale. Love you! 💗
That is amazing! How fantastic that we have both made good progress!
Chronically Jaquie - definitely! Thank you!!
I know the ‘fun’ (not) of PFTS. I have to do them every 3 months for my Cystic Fibrosis.
You are a champ! Conquering them that often.
Yay! This is great that your PFT results are improving. This is one of the tests that I dread because it takes me awhile to feel like I can catch my breath afterwards. Thank God for your improvement, I’m so happy for you! Keep showing the world that you are a warrior and survivor. GREAT JOB JAQUIE!!! 🤗
YAY! Love that the Xolair shots are improving your health in many ways! Always great to get some steps forward and improve your life, even in a small way.
Your smile made me smile.. My jtube soreness is getting better a little at a time. That's my victory today.
Jaquie I am so happy for your great day and victory!! Stay blessed your such a sweet soul❤️❤️❤️ rooting for you!!
Congratulations on the improvements in your asthma! 🎉
My success involved a recent series of cortisone shots in my back which I get periodically for pain. So. Felling less painful I guess my achievement for the week!

Good 4 U, Jacquie! The medical MJ has helped my (cough) asthma so very much!
Love love love seeing you smile and exited after waking out of an appt! Whatever your doing, don't change 🤗❤️
You’re amazing Jaquie! You’re right...it’s important to focus on the victories as well. I would say my victory has been with my gastroparesis.

So proud of you, Jaquie! Congratulations!
Any improvement is a celebration you seem to be happier, I wish you only the best. Thanks for the vlogs
I'm so glad you're doing well!!!

Hi Jaquie, Happy Friday! For me, I find PFT's a challenge. I'm glad your PFT's were normal. You are always inspirational. :)
Yay ! What a huge blessing and victory 💕
So happy your asthma is doing better!!! praying 4 you with the other issues!
Hey Jaquie congrats 🎉🎊🎈 on your success with the PFT🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Yeyyy! So happy for you. Today I was able to go to work for 1.5 hours a huge success after struggling to even get out of bed for months!
Yaaaayyyy!that's a huge victory! Being able to breath is wonderful
You deserve good news after that hospital stay! My various chronic illnesses have been kicking my butt (moving is the worst) but I'm reminding myself that getting to live in one of my favorite cities with my fiance is going to be worth every bit of struggle, stress, and effort.
Lots of love. ❤️
Congrats on your victory with your test!
I'm trying to get back on the Migraine Miracle diet because it's helped in the past. I'm struggling but am trying to cut things out slowly and have had some small successes with days I've not given in and drank a soda. Like you say 'Keep moving forward'.
your videos always help me go through a bad day and give me a shot of positivity and cheer me up
You should be my therapist your so encouraging!
That is wonderful results! God bless and keep moving forward!
Yay, I am so happy to hear your result are good. You look good today. Love your shirt. 😀 Tfs your great news.
Glad your asthma is getting better! I have the same type (together with like 10 other chronic illnesses and another 6 allergies and still stuff in testing. *sigh*) and I know how awful those coughing fits can be.

Keep moving forward!
this one is my friends. She has severe non epileptic seizures. They are still looking for the cause and trying to control them and can have multiple a day. Since they started getting bad she has had one day without them and that day is a victory and celebration. Even more so since it was the day she could desperately do without them.

Yay I’m so happy your Asthma is getting so much better that’s such a big excitement 🤩!!! Today I managed to go outside for a bit with my reverse walker ; certainly was a beautiful day 🌷🦓💜!!!
Today was the first day in a VERY long time that I didnt have really bad pain at work. It was only and little bit and I was able to complete my shift withought being in pain to the point of feeling like crying. I'm trying new methods to help with pain and I found one that works. :)
Yay!!! No victory is too small !!!!! Celebrate!! 👍🏻👍🏻💪🏻💪🏻❤️❤️🤣💥💥
Soo happy to see you improve in this area!!! :DDD
today i am almost finished with study. that’s my little accomplishment.
really enjoying these daily vlogs! :3
Congrats Jaquie! You should frame the results as an achievement! :)
😲 Jaquie I think I spotted you and Harlow in a video on The Pet Collectives Facebook page. It was entitled, appropriately, “Lil Heroes”. I would love to know for sure if that was you. As always wishing you the best and sending much ♥️
I finally went to see an Endodontic to get started on some oral surgery procedures I really need done. I am terrified of dentists and I walk all over my pain tolerance (as I like to say it, aka I have zero pain tolerance).
I'm happy for your victory today.
My last labs show my liver counts almost normal after them staying stable at high numbers since 2015 when I spent 18 days in Oct that year due to going septic. Out of three test well over all my normal test really all were normal but one but it was only7 points from normal!!! I've even went longer then normal with out any infections or needing my inhaler. I found out last year the coughing fits I'd been having that keep leading to bronchitis was actually couch varent asthma. I began being more proactive in finding the causes of all my symptoms then just treating them as they came. I'm doing better then I was now that we have my migraines and triggers sorted out. My meds sorted out where I'm taking less of the meds that were not effective and more effective meds because the doctors that I now see changed most of what my PCP had proscribed to ones that would better treat my health problems.
Well done that test is brutal from a fellow astmatic
So happy for you. Keep going!!!
My success today getting to take out my Folie catheter and use the commode, first time in 4 months.
Oh my word these tests are the death of me XD I have such a hard time with them :'D I'm glad you had such a good result in these tests though, that's AMAZING!!!
PFT always make me exhausted. I also could never finish the test. 😂
Right? And these used to be so much harder lol!
melaa was my a1c was at goal
Great news! I am happy for you!
And that would be why on the hospital Respiratory ward that I work on, we often get PFT results sent back to us with a hand written note of "good effort".
Glad to see I'm not the only one that goes bright red with those tests!
God I hate those kind of tests because my lung function is terrible due to my scoliosis. Plus, the Albuterol is awful.
And I got into university and I’m starting soon.
🎉 Congratulations! 🎉
Great news, Jaquie! Well done cariad! xxxxxxxx
That’s awesome Jaquie!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
I’m going back to school and I’m also celebrating the fact that I got a guide dog named Willis he’s the best and he’s have been helping me going back to school animals of 40 years old going back to school so as a big too big victories definitely win-win for you as well I’m so happy that you don’t have any asthma well I guess you’re still struggling? But I’m so happy for you jaquie u
Last year I had to take the test, found out I did have asthma now I wonder how long I've had this because I was 23 when I found out... My parents keep telling me I don't have asthma even with my test results
Great News! Great Video! Great Day! 😁🐱👍💕
pushing the love button!!! xoxoxoxoxox
Hi Jaquie, that's great results! So happy for you. I have cEDS POTS and Mast Cell too so I love your videos, they've been so helpful and encouraging.
Do you know if xolair would help chronic hives from MCAS? Is it good for reducing IgE mediated allergies with food?
I hate spirometry tests! So happy to hear your results with the Xolair though!
I literally just got out of bed. I was supposed to go to school but when I woke up, my body just told me to sleep more. I don’t have a favor but my colds suck and it’ll trigger my asthma :(
I have exercise, laugher, and environmental irritants (cleaning products, cigarettes, fragrances, deodorants! Even food allergies.....or pollen allergies) induced asthma. I cough....it’s a hacking cough that if if goes on long enough I get this weird metallic taste in my mouth. They just had to give me a spacer because my rescue inhaler started to make me cough and choke violently.....I guess from the powder hitting my throat.
Congratulations xxx
It’s a great victory being able to breath easier must a very nice thing.
Hi I love this channel and Harlow
I'm also on xolair it is the bomb I've been on them for three years I hardly use my breathing machine or inhaler I wished you the best with it
