Many time a new medical condition can cause us to change may aspects of our lives. We may have to do less because of symptoms or we may need to do more of certain health habits like improving our eating or getting more exercise.

Asthma is no different. Your asthma lifestyle is likely different than your lifestyle before being diagnosed with asthma. How has asthma changed your lifestyle? What things are you doing now that you did not do before? What things have you had to give up? Is there anything that you miss about your pre asthma lifestyle? Any words of wisdom for people with a new diagnosis of asthma?
