Hey Everyone!
I have Exercised Induced Asthma (EIA) and I play Netball, lots of running and tennis. When I play netball, I get asthma attacks. I have a puffer and everything but I really want to play. Whenever that does happen my coach puts me off for a half thinking that I am in no condition to play. I only need about two minutes to get my breathing under control but she just doesn't put me on no matter how much I'm not tired. My coach even calls out time and puts me off herself! It's so unfair! But let me start at the beginning...
I have been in A Grade Netball teams for all my career but when I made the switch to another Netball club, we're not exactly winning every game. That is why I try so hard. Plus, I don't want to let everyone down (only one reserve) so I keep on playing.
Sometimes I get them so bad that I black out. PLEASE CAN SOMEONE PLEASE GIVE ME SOME ADVICE? I really don't want to stay off this next netball game because it is my last. DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS DILEMNA AS WELL?
