Netherlands

In the summer of 2010, I traveled for one month to Munich, Chamonix, France….Normandy, Waterloo, the Ardennes in Belgium and finally, Amsterdam. I never used the precautionary prednesone that my doctor sent with me….I don’t remember using my inhaler ….not once. I told my doctor about it when I got back to the States and once again, began wheezing. I want to plan another trip for next year, but I wondered if anyone else had these breathing problems in certain cities….I will go to Europe in 2012 and I’ll stay the whole summer if I have to…..just to get into a city where I don’t have to be on medications and inhalers. The summer of 2011 in France, Italy and Ireland was absolutely horrible and I thought I would die at least twice. Does anyone else know of cities that are easy on asthmatics? – part 2 of 3 posts about asthma at home in SC and abroad -submitted by Khaki Berry in South Carolina
