The question you need to ask depends on yourself and what u want to know. My consultant is brilliant and i see him 2 monthly. He is able to answer any questions i have and really takes in to consideration my feelings. i.e what new drugs changes may be need and my asthma plan.

Dont be scared to ask any questions and if you feel there is certain things you want to try dont hesitate in suggesting them they can only say yes or no depending on what they feel would be more benifical to you.

Hope all gets well and you get some answers that you need

refered at last

I was diagnosed 8 years ago but rarely used my blue inhaler. Since 18 months ago 8 lots of steroids, numerous antibiotics, seretide 500 , monlucast, aminophyllin 225mg and finally I'm bring refered.

i'm going to write a list of questions after listening to the doc my normal pf is 500 at the mo 400 but wheezing like a set of bagpipes the blue spray is still getting hammered the only relief i seem to get is in bed which is where i'm off to as we speak. Hope you get better soon and finally get sorted.

Not what you're looking for?
