theophylline levels

just a quicky how often should they be checked and who can do them i.e. GP/cons/asthma nurse?

I would ask my consultant if levels needed checking between appointments/admissions and how often. I have had mine done at the GP's after the RBH requested they were done and the HCA who takes the blood did the actual vampire bit.

Katie, you could just toddle to your GP and explain why you want them checked I am sure they won't object to running a theophylline level.
