A Step (walking -- not running) in the Right Direction

I kept good with my new years promise to myself to get my asthma under control by visiting a pulmonologist today. After ending up in the ER on Christmas Eve I realized that taking a resue inhaler alone was not going to cut it anymore -- I needed to be placed on some maintenance medication.

I'm back on Singulair -- an asthma medication I've taken on and off for years in the past, and in general has worked well for me. Unlike the past times I've taken it, I plan on sticking to it this time. I'm determined to let my asthma affect me as little as possible. I even have a follow-up in six weeks. Lets hope there's some progress!
