Oh I am so jealous of your cooler temps. I want to walk every day not only to get extra energy (I have Mac) but also to lose some weight— 20 pounds overweight. So, today I took a 2 mile walk (1st time in 2 weeks) ,95° Humidity very high. I had to stop about five times and I either sat next to a tree or wherever I could to relieve my shortness of breath. I always have to sit down,I don’t know why. I used my albuterol inhaler three different times in the hour I walked. Does anyone use a spacer with the hand held inhaler? Wonder if that would help get more of the albuteral, it seems to go from the top of my throat instead of in my lungs. I was scared that I wasn’t going to make it and I did have a mod am’t of anxiety on the last fourth of the walk. I didn’t think I could make it but I did. I shouldn’t of walked. I keep thinking I’m 40 and healthy, not 73 and have a lung disease. Has anyone else been in a situation
where you do too much and scare yourself? I’ve got to think more before I do things. Judy
