Pet owners symptoms and conditions

I've been reading through all of the postings and I feel just terrible for everyone who has had a bad experience. However, I can honestly say that Singulair has saved my life. I have severe allergy induced asthma, and until I went on singulair, I felt sick every day of my life. I couldn't go anywhere outside of my house without having a reaction. I was allergic to not only cats and dogs, but also to any person who had a cat or dog. It was impossible for me to step into anyones house who had pets or to invite pet owners into my own home!! (That dander gets everywhere!) I am also allergic to everything else- mold, pollen, dust, you name it. In the past, I used albuterol to combat the attacks. Using my rescue inhaler always left me feeling loopy, dizzy, and shaky.....but since I've been on Singulair, (3 years) I think I've used my inhaler only twice!!! In my opinion, it is a miracle drug. I cannot say that I've had any psychological effects caused by Singulair. I have had anxiety disorder for 10 years, which i currently treat with 50 mg of 5-HTP per day (a natural herbal OTC supplement). Singulair has not made my anxiety worse- if anything- I feel less anxious because I no longer have the fear of having asthma attacks every where I go. Everyone reacts to medication differently, but for me it is a wonderful drug- hopefully researchers will be able to pinpoint the cause of the side effects other people are reporting.
