peak flow - flatline

hi

Just wondering if anyone else has had there peakflow chart sort of flatline.

Mine had a flat line prior to an infection kicking in? I am curious as im going through mine at the moment and its like im stuck on a 350 and its dropped from a 440/400 mark.

I dont like flat lines!! Even if it is on a chart and not a machine!

When I started taking my peak flow, I thought I was doing better on the days when all my PFs were the same at 300. Initial PFs way below that, so thought I was doing well.

Turns out there should be more of an up and down movement. Flat line, my asthma nurse said, means asthma not behaving.

Sorry if this isn't helpful, dear confused.

thats what i thought too - until the nurse said oh no when she saw it too. And then put me back on preds when she discovered there is a lot of fluid again.

I supposed to keep doing it for a another few months but its a making me feel a little paranoid now when i see them changes it is a great help though to control, but i feel a little systematic with everything I do.
