CHLORINE IN TAP WATER, can IT create ASTHMA symptoms like coughing for ten months? YES
FIRST OF ALL I DO NOT INTEND TO TRIVIALIZE THE SERIOUSESNESS OF THE DISEASE ASTHMA, BUT LISTEN TO OUR STORY IT MAY
HELP YOU OR OTHERS.....
******SIX YEARS AGO OUR CHILDREN CAME DOWN WITH HORRIBLE COUGHS.******
FIRST OUR DAUGHTER (3 years old). Coughing so much she couldn't sleep and her chest hurt so much.
Then, our 6 year old to a lesser degree.
Her pediatricians gave her antibiotics many times the first 3-4 months and then started talking as if she had asthma
and gave her asthma drugs. She had so much congestion, coughing etc.
TEN MONTHS after all this started and lots of investigating on my part I started checking out our water supply.
Sure enough after TEN MONTHS of our kids suffering, I found out our water company had started putting CHLORINE
into our water on the same date as their coughs had started.
I CURED THEM WITH NO HELP FROM THEIR PEDIATICIANS.
Once I started them on bottled water for their juice, drinking etc. they became 90% cured.
100% cured came later for my daughter once she was no longer bathing in chlorine water. Small bathroom warm air\water
filling the room, 3 year old likely drinking some as well, you get the picture.
The morning after a bath she would still cough a bit at the old house. The bathing part never bothered our 6 year old.
He was as large a 6 year old can be, she was almost as small a 3 year old comes.
Getting chlorine out of their diets also means their own water where ever they go.
But its sure a lot better than all the doctor visits and drugs they were on especially our 3 year old.
Bottled water 100% drug free. Her pediatricians also wanted us to damp mop every surface in her bedroom each week and
move all her stuff toys out, SHEESH what a lot of work!!!!! All we needed to do was get chlorine free water.
They have been cured for 6 years. I wonder how long would she have been treated with asthma drugs and how ill
she would of been had I never figured out our children were allergic\sensitive to chlorine??? Just think how sick
our 3 year old would of been had she been an infant on formula with chlorine water added???
Surely our children cannot be the only ones in the world.
I also found info on chlorine in the library medical books. On the descriptions of how chlorine effects humans
they were the same as the symptoms in my children. No surprise!!! How come their doctors never suggested the possibility?????

Here's an update on how the chlorine can still effect my kids.
Its been 8 years since they have been well.
Our now 14 year old has come down with a bad cough and wheezing.
Found out he's been drinking the chlorine tap water at school the last couple of weeks because he just started P.E. a few weeks ago.(He just wasn't thinking)
It's fresh in his memory now. I don't think having him drinking chlorine tap water will ever be a problem again.
Sure enough he's sick now. He's needing traditional asthma drugs to clear out the wheezing etc. After only a few days of no chlorine and treatments everyday he's now back to 100%.
