My criticism is not directed at NHS, but at the pharmaceutical companies who have an iron grip on all western medical practices and research.

Well Margaret If there is a cure for Asthma I ain't heard of it (apart from Betenko who's had limited success with true asthmatics) Asthma UK are spending millions on trying to find a cure, unless they found it late last night, I'm not aware of it. The problem with Asthma is there are so many trigger factors and not everybody is a true asthmatic, I'm certainly not, I have other underlying problems which also affect my treatment regime. As I have said before I don't know of any alternative medication which will stem a full blown asthma attack, which can kill within minutes, I know I've been there more than once, the last time was to close or comfort, believe me.
