@kathyjjb GREAT!!! I take it from what you said you don't get breathless.
That's MARVELOUS.
Good to know...."exercise to the point where you are sweating."
I exercise but not to that point. I will have to figure out how to do that at home without a treadmill.
So glad to hear it is helping...
I take it during the day you are drinking much water or having soups? That has helped me a great deal.

@blm1007blm1007 My asthma/reactive airways did get out of control earlier this summer and it was hard to breathe, but my doctor put me on Advair "for now" and breathing well now. The Brinsupri might be helping as well. So, knock on wood, I'm doing okay. Also, I typically walk outside except for 3 months during the summer, so I bought a Lifepro walking pad-lot cheaper than the standard treadmill. Yes, living in the desert, I'm conditioned to drink a lot of water. Here, the lows are in the upper 80's to the upper 90's (THE LOWS), so this year, I got the walking pad.

@blm1007blm1007 if your knees are good you can walk up and down stairs. It will definitely get you sweating!
