Guest guest Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 I started to use a dehumidifier in my room, I read that it was good for the respiratory system.

Guest guest Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 I use one in my daycare and had BIG improvements in the air quality and my breathing. I stopped using it since the air has gotten so dry around here. Do you feel it's helping you? If so keep using it Terry I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much. ~Mother Teddy Bear's Early Learning ProgramEstablished August of 1992 From: asthma [mailto:asthma ] On Behalf Of M GSent: Tuesday, December 09, 2008 5:01 PMTo: asthma Subject: DEHUMIDFIER I started to use a dehumidifier in my room, I read that it was good for the respiratory system.

Guest guest Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Mine is skwed: I've had 5 sinus surgeries. I have to have a humidifier in order to keep my sinuses moist. The trouple is, the humidity promotes mold, which triggers allergies . . . . . . Personally, I do well with a fair bit of humidity, say 50% plus. Your mileage may differ.

Guest guest Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 actually I had to have a humidifier..not a dehumidifier......I do better with more humidity. I get bad bloody noses too if the humidity goes to low. Also, if it goes to low, I have to use mucinex.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Hi . Same thing as in the shower. Humidity is good for my lungs. So, a dehumidifier would not be a good thing for me. I have also been advised to stay away from very dry climates such as Arizona etc. In fact, I tend to use humidifiers in the winter as heaters dry out the air. It all depends on how you in particular handle the humidity. Madeline > > > Subject: Re: Hot showers and asthma > To: asthma > Date: Tuesday, December 9, 2008, 3:37 PM > > > > > > > > > Same here.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Same here I've too had a total of 5 IF we have to go back in (constant ongoing problem with polyp growth) than the entire lining will be stripped, Not sure what that will mean for the sinus but I just hope that doesn't happen.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 I think I wrote wrong I have a humidfier, BUT when it rains and get humid, I can't breath I have a hard time. But I have had it my room and it definately helps because I hate the dry heat in the room sometimes I close off my vents.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 It may not be the humidity with weather systems. I have issues with changing barometric pressures as fronts are coming through.
