Just a bit ago, about 3:30am

I was lying in bed , not quite asleep and I heard someone say "I'm on my third round of Ventin"

Up to that point I was noticing my breathing was a bit wheezy. When I heard about the Ventin, my breathing cleared immediately.

It made me curious if there is some sort of medicine called Ventin, so I got up and looked up my best approximation of the word I heard in my
semi-sleep. No such word, but as I typed into google up comes the word ventilation. Also it made me think of a vent IN. Air IN.

The next time I am having breathing distress, I'm going to call for the Ventin! Anyone else who has asthma or asthma related issues want to try it too? Just relax, approach an altered state and ask for the Ventin.

Let me know how it works. I'll check back in on this thread the next time I use it.

1. that's a great story

I don't have asthma or breathing difficulties generally, but I will remember this if I get bronchitis.

Could it also have to do with "venting"--could you have released some stuff in that state?

2. Ventolin

There is such a thing as a Ventolin inhaler.

Though I like the idea of simply visualizing and calling forth "vent in." I don't have asthma, thank goodness, but thought I'd chime in with the Ventolin thing and support your visualization.

3. Interesting. My mother was hospitalized yesterday

suffering from asthma. She's been on Albuterol inhaler. I thought I heard one of my sisters say the ventin or ventil was not working on Friday night. Just looked up Albuterol and 2 of its brand names are Ventolin and Proventil.

I'll certainly pass on your advice. Thanks!

5. Geez, I miss everything....

I hope your mom is home and completely healed from this event by now, KOB.

She had some fantastic doctors at the hospital and is doing very well now :hug:

4. Sorry but

we're gonna have to arrest you for dispensing affirmations without a license and preventing pharma shills from whatever future profits they might have earned from selling a product that hasn't been invented yet. :yoiks: :evilgrin:

8. There is Ventolin or the generic Albuterol that is the same thing.

I use it as a rescue inhaler for my asthma. Maybe your guides are trying to get your attention to ask your doctor to prescribe it for you. Also, years ago, before I could get Medicare, and didn't have any health insurance, I used to participate in studies of Ventolin for Glaxo. This way I could get it free and also have some kind of medical monitoring as the studies were conducted by doctors. I don't know if your economic circumstances are what mine were at the time, but it is a way to get free drugs if you participate in their studies of new products as a guinea pig for them.
