Living With An Asthmatic Spouse by janeyjoys: 11:25pm On Aug 08, 2019
Hello.
Please i want to know what it is to have a spouse that is asthmatic. In all my life, i have never been with or known anyone that suffers from asthma but i would be getting married to one very soon.

What is it like?, Is there any effect on the marital life? conjugation, child birth, hereditary etc.

I am so worried as my would be spouse now daily come up with different stories of fatigue, tiredness, weakness, allergy and all sort that were perfectly hidden before now. I'm worried really...

.Thanks for your honest inputs.

What i am sure about is that asthma is hereditary. Meaning your children are likely to be asthmatic.



My first to comment is dedicated to myself.
May i be courageous enough to be the one to take my own life, not some idiot somewhere.

It's no biggie. You have nothing to worry about. Just recommend seritide inhaler for him whenever he has an attack. That's the best relief for asthma and it prevents continuous attack.


Congratulations all the same.

Let me school you. Not all asthma is hereditary. A severe cough in a child that is untreated properly during childhood can lead to a more severe case of asthma. Even exposure to dust, cold and extreme environments can lead to asthma. It all depends on the body mechanism of the individual.

Perfectly hidden? Does that mean you are just knowing about this because of the preparation for the wedding?

Read more about this online or talk to a good doctor.

I believe growing up she must have learnt how to manage it.Avoid triggers like dust,smoke etc.Always have your inhaler handy.
It's hereditary,so you could have your child inherit it.

whenever he is having an asthmatic attack, you will need to give him head so the tension in his lungs will go into his balls

also you should not let him go to sleep with blue balls otherwise the tension from his balls will go to his lungs and chest

It's living with anyother person but it will be better if he knows his body, what triggers the attack and allergies too.

Good and clean environment, non exposure to dust, always having drugs and inhaler, and prayers will really help.

He will be fine.

Happy married life in advance.

Asthma is hereditary, theres is tendency that 1 out of our 3 kids would have it. Although one outgrows it over time.

Hmm.

First and foremost, always keep drugs at hand, don’t let drugs run out before you get more.

Keep ventolin tablets and inhalers, perilon( or any corticosteroid that works best to reduce the effects of an allergy for your partner), cough syrups and incase of severe asthma, a Nebulizer at home.

I’m mildly asthmatic, I use perfumes, i fry my food but when there’s a change in weather; say rainy season to dry season or vice versa - I get an attack, prolonged exposure to dust also triggers it for me. I sweep my house myself but when I start a project at a building site, I usually get an attack like 2 to 3 weeks in and that’s why I always go to work with face masks.

If your partner’s case is severe, then she should avoid sprays; perfumes, body sprays, insecticides etc. She should avoid frying or roasting. She should avoid smoking, burning trash or bushes. Get a vacuum cleaner if possible. Keep multiple inhalers at home. Keep one in each room of the house, in the car, at the office, in your pocket.

She should be aware of the onset of an attack. For some it’s a cough. For me it’s sneezing back to back until I can’t sneeze anymore. For some, it’s a blocked nose with a cold. Once she sees the sign, she should make sure there is an inhaler on sight.

All in all, she should be fine if she knows how to manage it well
