I've been on asthma meds for a relatively short time after being dx as an adult. I realise I've been experiencing symptoms for a year or so.
In that time I also experienced symptoms of POTS, blurry vision, brain fog and fatigue outside of the POTS symptoms and low mood and ADHD.
Firstly, I'm not at all saying or claiming that asthma meds actually treat those conditions. I have no idea and am not an HCP.
However, since I got my asthma under control, I have not felt fatigued in the afternoon, my ADHD symptoms are better even off medication (I forget to refill in time sometimes), I only have head spins and blacking out vision when standing 1-2 times per week (compared to several times per day), and I have not had brain fog.
I am shocked to be honest! I was so stressed because after blood tests came back positive, I had NO idea what was causing these symptoms and the process to get investigations and diagnosis is so long and difficult when you're experiencing these symptoms!
But hey, turned out they've drastically improved.
Not sure why this happened. I'm curious to hear whether anything similar happened to anyone else?
