Most of my troubles are allergy related and I live in KY where all the bad things grow. When harvest time gets here it overwhelms my allergy meds so I get a shot of decadron to get me through.
My last attack where I needed my "rescue" inhaler was over 2 years ago when I caught a face full of Camel non-filtered walking out of the hospital of all places. It had been so long between attacks when I made it to my truck I realized the inhaler in my glove compartment had been expired for over 2 years. I hate to spend the $25 on one just to keep it current but it beats taking a chance on an ER visit.
