So after being ok for a few weeks and my tachycardia disappearing

I'm having "an acute episode" (whatever the hell that means) and I've now got a seven day course of prendisolone to add to the mix and me heart rate is back through the roof

So I'm using me salbutamol like a breath freshener, becotide and now prendisolone

Thanks it's just been going so well for the last few weeks

There are other bronchodilators which don't give tachycardia I have been told..

Take care..

The tachycardia is actually caused by the asthma (in my case) and was present before I re-started asthma medication (it's actually the reas on anyone knew anything was up)

Ahhhh it's a difficult one.. Did you try to get advice from Asthma UK helpline? They have good tips.
