Hi meg

If you feel your meds are affecting your asthma , you need to have a word with gp , they have our history of what we suffer from & take this in to account when perscribing meds , how ever if you feel the meds are the problem , go back & let them no

Mean while you could always phone the chemist they are open at the weekend or NHS help line if you feel you dont want to wait till Monday ...i dont say that to alarm you , just incase you want peace of mind before you can speak to your GP

Let us no how things go

I know diclofenac r a painkiller + thats about it, dnt know weather it would effecf ur athsma but u r the bst judge of ur body + if u think they r i would ask 4 medical advice as soon as possible. I dnt think GP would give u somthin that would interfere wiv athsma as its a serious condition but u definatly need 2 check this out. Mayb u could ring nhs or ur chemist. Do it 2morrow a.s.p. kind regards leeanne.xx

Thank you, I will xx
