Asthma in Adults
How is asthma treated?
Asthma is treated with different types of medicines. The medicines can be inhalers, liquids, or pills. Your doctor will prescribe medicine based on how often you have symptoms and how serious your symptoms are.
Asthma medicines work in 1 of 2 ways:
Quick-relief medicines stop symptoms quickly – in 5 to 15 minutes. Almost everyone with asthma has a quick-relief inhaler that they carry with them. People use these medicines whenever they have asthma symptoms.
Long-term controller medicines control asthma and prevent future symptoms. People who get asthma symptoms more than 2 times a week need to use a controller medicine 1 or 2 times each day.
Controller medicines tend to take longer to work, sometimes a few weeks. So, it can be hard to tell if the medicine is working. Keep taking the medicine but talk to your doctor or nurse if you do not feel a medicine working.
It is very important that you take all the medicines the doctor prescribes, exactly how you are supposed to take them.
If your symptoms get much worse all of a sudden, use your quick relief medicine and contact your doctor or nurse. You might need to go to the hospital for treatment.
When to get help or call 911
If you have frequent or severe asthma symptoms, your doctor might suggest that you have an asthma action plan. If so, you and your doctor will work together to make one. As part of your action plan, you might need to use something called a “peak flow meter.” Breathing into this device will show how your lungs are working. Your doctor will show you the right way to use your peak flow meter.
Should I see a doctor or nurse? Yes.
See your doctor or nurse if you have asthma symptoms. And call your doctor or nurse if you have an asthma attack and the symptoms do not improve or get worse after using a quick-relief medicine.
If asthma symptoms are severe, call for an ambulance (in the US and Canada, dial 9-1-1).
If you need asthma medicine every day, you should see your doctor or nurse every 6 months or more often.

What’s the best way to lose weight on my own?
To lose weight, you have to eat less or move more. Doing both is even better.

Studies have compared different diets such as the Atkins diet, the Zone diet, and the Weight Watchers diet. No single diet turns out to be better than any other. Any diet that reduces the number of calories you eat can help you lose weight – as long as you stick with it.

Physical activity works the same way. You can walk, dance, garden, or even just move your arms while sitting. What’s important is that you increase the number of calories you burn by moving more. And you have to keep doing the extra activity.

If you go on a diet for a short time, or increase your activity for a while, you might lose weight. But you will regain the weight if you go back to your old habits. Weight loss is about changing your habits for good.

The best way to start is to make small changes and stick with them. Then, little by little, you can add new changes that you also stick with.

Are there medical treatments that can help me lose weight?
There are medicines and surgery to help with weight loss. But those treatments are only for people with extreme weight problems who have not been able to lose weight through diet and exercise. What’s more, weight loss treatments do not take the place of diet and exercise. People who have those treatments must also change how they eat and how active they are.

How do weight loss medicines work?
Weight loss medicines work by reducing your appetite or by changing the way you digest food. They are appropriate only for people who:

Have a BMI of 30 or greater; or
Have a BMI between 27 and 29.9 and also have medical problems, such as diabetes, heart disease, or high blood pressure

How do I decide if weight loss treatment is right for me?
If your doctor suggests weight loss treatment, ask these questions:

About how much weight can I expect to lose and how long will that take? – This depends on the treatment. There are several different types of stomach surgeries to help with weight loss. The amount of weight loss and how long it takes to lose weight is different for each one.
What are the risks of treatment for someone like me? – Medicines can have side effects. Surgery can lead to infections, bleeding, the need for other operations, and even death. To reduce the risk of these problems, make sure your surgeon is very experienced and that you are treated at a certified “Center of Excellence.”
What changes will I need to make to my diet and lifestyle? – Weight loss treatments are not “short-cuts” that get you out of making lifestyle changes. People getting treated must also change how they eat and how active they are. No weight loss treatment works on its own. Sometimes people can get surgery only after they prove they can make lifestyle changes – by losing some weight on their own.
Will I be able to process food normally? – Some types of stomach surgeries leave people unable to get all the nutrients they need from food. People who have this problem must take vitamin and mineral supplements for the rest of their lives.

Can asthma symptoms be prevented? Yes.
You can help prevent your asthma symptoms. You can stay away from things that trigger your symptoms.
some common triggers:
Cigarette smoke.
Exercise – Exercise can be good for people with asthma even if it is a trigger. But you might need to take an extra dose of your quick-relief inhaler medicine before you exercise. It might help to warm up before doing intense exercise. If you exercise outside on a very cold day, it can also help to wear a loose scarf or mask over your nose and mouth.
Dust – Mattress and pillow covers can reduce dust mites.
Mold – Use a dehumidifier or air conditioner to keep indoor air dry. Remove any mold you see.
Certain animals – These can include dogs, cats, mice, or cockroaches. If you are allergic to animals or insects, try to figure out ways to avoid them.
Pollen – Stay indoors when possible during pollen season. Keep your windows and doors closed whenever you can.
Getting sick with a cold or flu – Make sure to get a flu shot every year. Some people also need to get a vaccine to help prevent pneumonia. If you think you might have been exposed to the flu, tell your doctor or nurse. They might prescribe special medicine (called “antiviral” medicine).
Stress
Some adults with asthma have worse symptoms if they take aspirin or medicines called NSAIDs. NSAIDs include ibuprofen (sample brand names: Advil, Motrin) and naproxen (sample brand names: Aleve, Naprosyn). Ask your doctor if you need to avoid these medicines.
If you can’t avoid certain triggers, talk with your doctor about what you can do. For example, you might need to take an extra dose of your quick-relief inhaler medicine before you exercise or are around pollen or animals you are allergic to.
What if I want to get pregnant?
If you want to get pregnant, talk to your doctor about how to control your asthma. Keeping your asthma well-controlled is important for the health of your baby. Most asthma medicines are safe to take if you are pregnant.

Hypertension – High Blood Pressure
High blood pressure is a condition that puts you at risk for heart attack, stroke, and kidney disease. It does not usually cause symptoms but it can be serious.
When your doctor or nurse tells you your blood pressure, he or she will say 2 numbers. For instance, your doctor or nurse might say that your blood pressure is “130 over 80.” The top number is the pressure inside your arteries when your heart is contracting. The bottom number is the pressure inside your arteries when your heart is relaxed.
According to the American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology:
– Normal blood pressure should be under 119 or below / 79 or below
– Elevated blood pressure should be 120-129/ 79 or below
– High blood pressure should be 130 or above/ 80 or above
Elevated Blood Pressure
“Elevated blood pressure” is a term doctors or nurses use as a warning. People with elevated blood pressure do not yet have high blood pressure. But their blood pressure is not as low as it should be for good health.
How can I lower my blood pressure?
If your doctor or nurse has prescribed blood pressure medicine, the most important thing you can do is to take it. If it causes side effects, do not just stop taking it. Instead, talk to your doctor or nurse about the problems it causes. He or she might be able to lower your dose or switch you to another medicine. If cost is a problem, mention that too. He or she might be able to put you on a less expensive medicine.
Taking your blood pressure medicine can keep you from having a heart attack or stroke, and it can save your life!
Can I do anything on my own?
You have a lot of control over your blood pressure. To lower it:
Lose weight
Choose a diet low in fat and rich in fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy products
Reduce the amount of salt you eat
Do something active for at least 30 minutes a day on most days of the week
Cut down on alcohol (if you drink more than 2 alcoholic drinks per day)
It’s also a good idea to get a home blood pressure meter. People who check their own blood pressure at home do better at keeping it low and can sometimes even reduce the amount of medicine they take.

What are the different types of arthritis?
1. Degenerative Arthritis
Osteoarthritis is the most common type of arthritis. When the cartilage – the slick, cushioning surface on the ends of bones – wears away, bone rubs against bone, causing pain, swelling and stiffness. Over time, joints can lose strength and pain may become chronic. Risk factors include excess weight, family history, age and previous injury.
Osteoarthritis may be prevented by staying active, maintaining a healthy weight and avoiding injury and repetitive movements.
2. Inflammatory Arthritis
A healthy immune system is protective. It generates internal inflammation to get rid of infection and prevent disease. But with inflammatory types of arthritis, the immune system doesn’t work properly and mistakenly attacks the joints with uncontrolled inflammation, potentially causing joint erosion.
Researchers believe that a combination of genetics and environmental factors can trigger autoimmunity. Smoking is an example of an environmental risk factor that can trigger rheumatoid arthritis in people with certain genes.
With autoimmune and inflammatory types of arthritis, early diagnosis and aggressive treatment is critical. Slowing disease activity can help minimize or even prevent permanent joint damage. Remission (little to no disease activity) is the goal and may be achieved by using one or more medications known as disease-modifying anti rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). Other treatment goals include reducing pain, improving function and preventing further joint damage.
3. Infectious Arthritis
A bacterium, virus or fungus can enter the joint and trigger inflammation.In many cases, timely treatment with antibiotics may clear the joint infection, but sometimes the arthritis becomes chronic.
4. Metabolic Arthritis
In some people, uric acid builds up and forms needle-like crystals in the joint, resulting in sudden spikes of extreme joint pain, or a gout attack. Gout can come and go in episodes or, if uric acid levels aren’t reduced, can become chronic, causing ongoing pain and disability.
