Advice?

Okay, so the cold seems to have morphed into an asthma attack. I haven't had one for years, so I have no inhalers with me. Urgent care opens at 8 (a little over four hours), and I will definitely go then, but does anyone know what emergency room signs are?

I can still breathe, and all my extremities are a healthy pink. I'm uncomfortable enough that I can't fall asleep, and I have to sit up. Also, any home remedies would be extremely helpful.

... though not sure who's awake right now...?

ETA: Ended up going to an ER because the thought of going for four more hours like I was was too painful. Am back now, with slightly more expanded bronchial tubes!

I was seriously debating it and then decided you'd had a hard enough week to wake up at that time!

Yeah, but I would have just thrust the phone at Adrian. (Who tells me he would have told you to go to the ER.)

Hee! Ok, good, am glad I did the advisable thing, although not looking forward to the bill.

I seriously need to treat Adrian to dinner or something when I'm down there as recompense for all the random medical emergencies I seem to be having this year...
