Asthma?

[mikeswift]

any of you guys have asthma? I work on a product for asthma and I just heard Shannon Briggs say that he has it and has fought with it. Does anyone know any other famous athletes with asthma or have it themselves?

Jerome Bettis has done several commercials for inhalers and what not.....


I had allergy induced asthma when I was younger.
Now unless i get around cats I am good to go.

I have exercise induced asthma. I am supposed to use Advair daily, but only use it during the winter hockey season when needed. I am not one to listen to Dr's orders very well. I usually take it for about a month then drop off until I feel it again.

The cold air does affect me at the beginning of the season.

I did play in a tourney this past weekend and played 8 games and could feel the congestion in my chest getting worse. I forgot my Albuterol (taken as needed too), but functioned well. At least as well as a fat guy can after 8 games.

I'm not an elite skater, but play hard always and try to skate at least 3-5x a week.

I have/had asthma. It has definitely gotten better over the years and hardly bothers me anymore. Only when I run long distances do I use it. I could probably stop completely and be okay, but don't want to risk it.
