MedHelp is pleased to announce the launch of our new Asthma Tracker. With MedHelp's free Asthma Tracker (http://www.medhelp.org/land/ asthma- tracker), you can track daily peak flow readings to alert you to changes in your lung function, usage of inhalers and other treatments, symptoms associated with asthma and triggers of asthma or wheezing attacks. You can also keep a journal detailing the asthma flare-ups and share all this information with your doctors so they can understand how you are responding to treatment at home.
Benefits Include: * Track and keep a historical chart of your peak flow readings. * Track how many puffs of an inhaler are taken daily. * Track symptoms and side effects associated with asthma, including wheezing, cough, rapid pulse and sweating. * Track asthma related medications and treatments, including short- and long-term bronchodilators, inhaled steroids, corticosteroids, and leukotriene inhibitors. * Keep a diary or journal of daily events and triggers of asthma flare- ups. * Join an asthma support community and find other members like you (http://www.medhelp.org/forums/show/176). * Receive personal answers to questions from doctors at National Jewish Heath in our Ask-a-Doctor Asthma & Allergy forum (http:// www.medhelp.org/forums/show/99)
