Hi there!

I am a third year student in St. Mary's University College, Belfast. I have been asked to design a system and I have decided to concentrate on this recently found problem about moisture level in the home contributing to asthma.

You can see the BBC news report here; www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-20174802

I would really like your opinions on this, weather you or your child suffer from asthma, have you noticed this before now affecting you and anything you'd like to mention regarding this problem would realy help!

Any input would really help my research! Thanks!! smile

Have you posted this in Chat also? Not sure this is the best place to put it tbh....

Hello......am a little unsure whether or not I can mention a product name on here ( only just joined) so I might get thrown off....but here's hoping.
I did some work with asthma products before retirement took me over and we often thought that it would be helpful to track humidity in asthma sufferer's lives - perhaps linking certain climates etc to size of attacks.
A short time ago I came across an Iphone app called MediMe which basically tracks medication but also has a diary facility .......perhaps useful for these sufferers? Also fab to record medications for emergency if travelling home or abroad.
Let me know what you think.
Good luck with your research Gavin............Paco888
