Hi all. My asthma has been really bad for 5 weeks now. Hospital admission for a week. Back on high dose steroids after a 2 day break. I saw my gp yesterday and she said to increase nebulisers. I was having 5ml salbutamol every 4 hours including through night. And 3 atrovent daily. Plus symbicort 4 times per day. I'm a bit worried about having more salbutamol. Has anyone increased nebulisers , say to every 2 hours or so and been ok?

Yes but I imagine most people would have that OKd by a consultant. Mine certainly was. Sorry you're having a rubbish time. Other than trying to contact your consultant next week not sure what you can do. What else are you on?
I take 15mg pred per day usually. Plus carbocystene daily and azithrmycin 3 times per week. Nebulisers and inhalers. I'll ring consultant Secretary on Monday if I can fed up at min.
Not what you're looking for?
