MANAGEMENT
OF
ASTHMATICS:
YOU
ARE IN
CHARGE!
Asthma is a chronic disease that
requires the most appropriate kind of
mentality for
its
best
management
-
you
must not
be
too complacent
nor too
pessimistic. As there should be
a
good
and mutual understanding
between
your doctor and yourself as well as
a
good doctor-patient relationship, "shop-
ping around"
for
doctors
is
never
recommended.
The
best policy is
for
you
yourself to
be in charge.
The
doc-
tor
is
still
required
and
is
vital
for
play-
ing
a
leadership role. You must under-
stand that
aslhma
is
caused
by a
com-
plexity of causative
factors
so that you
have
to take good
note
of your
own
causative tactors.
Always
be prepared
lor sudden attacks
of
asthma; take note
of
any early warning signs. Ask
your
doctor what
are
the signs of a more se-
vere attack
so
that
rushing
to
hospital
would be required.
Keep
a
good
diary
for
the disease.
lf
available, have some
subjeclive means
of
monitoring the
disease,
e.9.,
one
of
those
convenient
and portable
peak
expiratory llow
rate
meters
for
continuous
monitoring.
Lastly, make sure that you are
familiar
with the details
ol the
policy, dosage
and side-effects of your
long-term
medication.
