[QUOTE="ScentofCedar, post: 331498, member: 3353"] I think the vinyl pad might be really hot, Recovering. Maybe you could try washing the mattress pad she has now on a weekly basis, instead of buying one of the expensive ones? Have you noticed any connection between asthmatic episodes and diet? I found wheat, dairy, chocolate, caffeine, strawberries, bananas, and tomatoes to be responsible for most of my problems with asthma. (Even just a little bit of real butter will do it.) Peanut butter too, though I can eat pecans and walnuts. It's crazy! Can't eat popcorn anymore, either. I have also noticed a hormonal component to my sensitivities. Have you noticed anything like that with your daughter? When I have a bad spell with my asthma, I find that the generic form of Mucinex helps me very much. Another thing that doesn't make a bit of sense, but that has helped me very much, is to use Diet Coke when I am having trouble. (From the can only ~ otherwise, it doesn't seem to help.) A doctor told me once that perhaps I have low stomach acid, and that might be why the Coke works. They say two cans a day should not cause harm. Does daughter have a cat? That was another trigger for me. We still have our cat (and dog), but we don't let them sleep with us, anymore. Wishing well. Barbara . [/QUOTE]
