Could do with some advice

I am new here

Well - I am 60 and have been asthmatic since birth - nothing drastic - I use Preventer during spring/autumn as weather changes and reliever otherwise. I am an anxious type - using SSRI's for many years - I have no Covid symptoms but my breathing has been bad for a couple of days, Love to know if others like me have seen a change of late??

Hey there and welcome!!

If it’s an comfort to you, a few of us in here have noticed a increase in symptoms in the last couple of weeks.

Do you suffer from hayfever or have a pollen allergy? If so, this would help explain this.

Thanks for replying - well maybe - I always start my reliever in March for a month or 2 as "the weather changes" - maybe it is that simple!

I’ve been the same- always bad in the Spring- wheezier and constantly blowing my nose. Def spring pollen for me. I’m taking Montelukast now and that seems to help a little
