I (19F) got diagnosed with moderate asthma last year, and i had bronchitis when im 17. the problem is my specialist dont even know even if i had asthma before that but not discovered or developed after bronchitis.
Another main problem is i really want to sign on and be an Aircrew with the Air Force, if not, Navy i guess(?)
But with my health like this, im really losing hope, especially with the fact that one of the trigger is exercise-induce as well. I had a check and my current pes status is B4.
Currently, i tries to run a few times a week, do push up and stuffs and is under controlled. But as you know, its a whole new complete level if im inside. Training is tough and i might not cope. As time goes by, my lungs would get weaker if my lungs is not strong enough.
(For those who have asthma and is serving the nation, may i know how long did you guys take to improve your lung condition from your initial asthma range and what do you guys did to improve it? Eg, how long does it take for you guys to improve your lungs condition from moderate/severe to mild/borderline?
Also, is getting diagnosed at 18/19 consider as childhood or adult asthma? If adult, what is the chances of recovery?)
Anyone, please give any advice or stories to share please??? :< anyone from Medical Corps or has any knowledge? please help...
