Here is a situation for a 18D that comes from an experience i have had in the field.

So no shit there we were. We were in the field for an exercise and I believe it was Hay dust that was all over the place. After a couple of hours in a tent filled with Hay pollen or whatever, I couldn't breath for shit. I would say that about 19 out of 20 people were given albuteral inhalers. That didn't really work for me so I asked the doc for something stronger. He gave me prednisone pills and I was breathing like a champ.

The question is, if you are on a team, down range, would you use this method for a situation like this? I have never had breathing problems, so I believe that at least a couple of guys on an A-detachment could potentially experience a problem like this, and maybe on mission in some podunk village downrange.

Also, since this was a one time occurence, would you document it in your medical file?
