Feeling confused

My asthma is controlled by fostair. I took 2 puff's morning and night. I have been requested to bring it down to 1 morning and 1 night as I was getting a burning sensation in my lungs when I took it. I think my fostair is not working properly anymore but I am not sure on how to tell.

The fostair is still working as in controlling my asthma and I am still getting the burning sensation. I am asking for advice before I go and ask for assistance from gp's

Is the burning sensation just something you get when you take it (as in it goes then only comes back the next time)? If so, it could be a sign of an infection or another underlying problem. Do you take any other inhalers besides? It's definitely worth a chat with your GP anyway to see what they think.

I only get it when I take my inhaler's. I have spoken to an asthma nurse and she can not anything wrong. I might have to go back

[Minushabens in reply to Hidden]

Yes I would go back to the GP...it's an uncommon thing, but your doctor will have a better idea of what might be behind it.

My asthma nurse worked in a hospital before coming to my GP's

Do you use a spacer ? I can't take it unless I do

[Hidden in reply to omahjoa]

Even with a spacer I get the same problem
