Weather in Berkshire

4 Replies

Hi. I've just registered and am wondering if anyone else is feeling the affects of their asthma today. I live in Reading, Berkshire and feel like I've an elephant on my chest today!!! Am really annoyed because it's the first proper day of the summer holidays and I don't have the energy to play with my boys and can't face the walk to my local supermarket!! Have taken my Seretide and 8 puffs of my Ventolin today and I've a peak flow of just over 200. Haven't really suffered with my asthma until approx 2 years ago and still can't get used to it. It's a tad wet and miserable here and am wondering if I feel like this because of the change in the weather??!!

welcome dawnieb1971.

The weather is causing lots of us on here problems like a nellie elephant on

our chests and breathless etc.

Would recomend you get a check up if your pf is still low as you might need a

add on medication.

Yep Ellie is a frequent visitor to my chest atm too.

I know what you mean though, had to wuss out and drive the less-than-a-mile to the shops today, couldn't deal with the kids running amok, Ellie on my chest AND a walk to the shops!!
