I was diagnosed with asthma about the same time I was diagnosed with sick sinus syndrome--an occurance I've since learned isn't that unusual. For a long time, very low doses of Dulera seemed to keep the asthma under control. Lately though, I've begun to suspect some of my "heart" symptoms are really asthma symptoms.
I'd like to do a better job sorting everything out and being proactive about the asthma, but while there's lots and lots of general information on the web, I'm having a hard time learning specifics that relate to my condition.
One of the things I appreciate most about this group as that we can come here and learn when and what to question. Does anyone know of an online club similar to Pacemaker Club that offers a forum for patients with asthma?

There is also an Asthma Support group with 5000 members on Facebook
https://www.facebook.com/groups/615544601964794/
I would think its similar to the Pacemaker Support group there also "Pacemaker Club"
And there is a "Benign, untreated, PVC and PAC Support Group"
And a sort of wacky group called "Pacemakers and Shenanigans"
Probably more, but who has the time ?
