  10. Hello everyone I am almost at my finish line:biggrin2:… but I have come to a fork in my road.:biggrin: I am a serve asthmatic and I just recently got sick. I came home from work and everything was good I fed my son cleaned the kitchen I was fine, but then I sat on the coach an I couldn’t breath. I told my husband we need to go to the hospital so off we went. I was at the hospital for about 4 hours and I went home. Here is the kicker :success1: I walked in my apartment and no more than 6 minutes later EMS was at my house to take me back to the hospital. I couldn’t breathe again and I was getting worst. As I was at the hospital I kept thinking to my self would I have such bad asthma if I was skinny? So many questions and thoughts went through my mind and I started to cry.:thumbup: I really want this surgery for many reasons but the main one is for better health. But when I was there I was just looking around me and asthma comes in all shapes and sizes. My problem is will this surgery help me get my asthma under control or am I just that person that will have very bad asthma for the rest of her life. I just want to talk to people that have asthma and had the band or have asthma and is thinking about it like my self. I am so frustrated because I want this so bad but not that bad were my asthma will get worst. If any one could PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE help me or give me some advise that would be great…. :biggrin2:
