Greece - Asthma School
From my experience derived by handling asthmatic patients for many years I came to the conclusion that there is no use to subscribe the most expensive medications or to perform the most detailed laboratory investigation while the patient goes to bed and sleep every night along with the house dust mites that have infested his/her mattress and pillow ! Busy physicians perhaps do not have the time to educate their patients about the allergens involved in their allergies, the mechanisms of their disease or the possible side-effects of the medications prescribed. It is my belief that only those who are well informed about their allergy will get the most from therapy and help administered by their Allergist. Therefore, this "Asthma School" will try to fill the gap and give allergic patients suffering from asthma a lot of information on issues relevant to their bronchial asthma. If you have any questions about asthma or allergies in general, please do not hesitate to e-mail me (see at the end of the page). In collaboration with your doctor we will find the most suitable solution for your case.
