Question by missitalia: I had an asthma attack at swim practice and I’m afraid to go back. Should I go or wait until I start meds?
I just found out that I had asthma, and this was my first swim practice for the season. I haven’t started medication yet (but will when my prescription comes in) should i swim with non-medicated asthma?

You can swim but don’t push yourself too far or hard bc u will have an asthma attack and without a rescue inhaler it could end bad. I’m sure someone on ur team has an inhaler so u may ask around and see if u could borrow one if u have an attack.
