Hi Kelly- I guess mine was a racey heart and after one try I just stopped using it. Pro Air didn't make my heart feel so racey or me so shakey.

I have exercise-induced dyspnea and I treat it like a mild asthma attack.

What can I do without Albuterol?

Sit upright. Stop whatever you are doing and sit upright. ...
Take long, deep breaths. This helps to slow down your breathing and prevent hyperventilation. ...
Stay calm. ...
Get away from the trigger. ...
Take a hot caffeinated beverage. ...

I hope that there are other people in this group that can be more imaginative than I am?

Me too! It is concerning, not having immediate access to s rescue inhaler! Talk about stressful! The drug store pharmacists have been no help at all to talk to - and they are the drug experts…….either too busy…..or just say they dom’t know the answer. Imagine if this were a child attending school wighout a rescue inhaler! There has to be an alternative……It must be some kind of secret!
