And I'm positive for asthma. They didn't even do the full four treatments of the methacholine on me. The tech stopped at two because I dropped below 20% that soon. So now I go in on wednesday to see the doctor and get medicine. My question is, are there different medicines for different types of asthma? It seems like I have allergic asthma that's worsened in the cold since I've never had this problem before moving to Ft. Bragg. I'm also going to ask for a referal for allergy testing. I'm so glad I finally have an answer.

Thanks for all the help btw!

There are different drugs but it seems they are based on the severity and the triggers. Typically they put you on a daily preventer and a rescue inhaler for when you have an attack. If your allergies add to that, I would suggest getting tested for specific allergies and adding at least an antihistamine if not immunotherapy (injections) to your asthma meds.

I agree with Titchou and can totally relate about colds. They always make my asthma worse so I would come up with a plan for when well and when sick.
