Asthma: What foods and Over the Counter products trigger or worsen an Asthma attack?
My sister said my recent near death attack was due to some dried apricots I ate 9 or 10 hours earlier. I had never heard this, but I am new to the Asthma wolrd. I love apricots and have not had breathing problems with them ever before. My Doc said it may have been the Alieve I took 3 hours prior. He didn't mention foods could be a trigger. Can they? What foods and Over the Counter products are suspect?
What should I do if someone had an asthma attack but they don’t have their pump?
Let's say, we're in the country, enjoying a nice meal outside, one of my friends, suddenly has an asthma attack!
Somebody rushes to see if there's the pump inside his backpack. Oh no! We cannot find it anywhere! Someone tries to call emergency, but in rural area, cell phone coverage is void!

Is social withdrawal normal during a severe asthma attack?
I had a severe attack the other day and had to be taken to the ER. While I was having the attack and waiting for the ambulance, I seemed to socially withdraw and only stare as I was gasping for air and wheezing. I didn't make eye contact with anyone.

What happens if you feel like your having an asthma attack but you don’t have and inhaler?
Every time I feel like I am going to have an asthma attack I can't use an inhaler because my parents don't believe me when I say I have asthma no matter how many times I tell them. I was looking up the signs on the internet and I have a tickle in the back of my throat, I cough all the time, I have the shortness of breath and all the symptoms so I don't know why they don't believe me! Thank you to whoever answers this!
