I've noticed his hands trembling, and I think the albuterol makes his heart race a bit. He's establishing a pattern of being pretty complaint (esp. in the morning) for his first of two doses, then objecting to the second dose. Poor kid. I'm really hoping he won't have to use this much longer. When I was super sick a few years ago and using an inhaler constantly my hands shook a lot and my heart kept racing. It wasn't pleasant, but I knew that was a possible side effect-- I knew what was happening and why.

I use an OTC nasal allergy medicine now. It's called "nasalcrom" and the name CRACKS. ME. UP. I use that, Visine-A (allergy eye drops), alavert, and an inhaler and have mostly been able to stay on top of my allergy/asthma problems. I wish we had the money for a cleaning person to come in and dust/sweep/do the blinds. In theory Nesko could do it, but he's gone for about 12 hours a day every day between his commute and his work. Buh.
