Wow. If you have asthma, I would certainly question candlemaking. If you decide to continue making candles, you best pick up a kick butt respirator type mask. Seriously, if you thought you were going to die, I would assume you'd get your butt to the ER ASAP. You wouldn't be here, posting on a message board. Then again, people do things that make no sense to me. None of us should be giving you medical advice, no matter what. One other thing. You may want to retract your statement. Talk like that will get you kicked to the curb real fast.
