Good morning everyone, i wanted to post to let you know that i am so much better after having an asthma flare up lasting nearly 3 months. They found grade 3 nasal polyps which had contributed to increased mucus/bronchial mucus casts/plugs in my lungs. I have been given medication to help shrink the polyps. I also started on fostair and within a few hours i was coughing up all the mucus from my lungs and within 24hrs i no longer had severe breathlessness or wheeze or cough. i am now 2 weeks on and feeling great. I'm so pleased they found the polyps which was causing all the mucus and that i tried fostair. Nasal polyps are sometimes missed so it is always a good idea to keep them in mind if you have an asthma flare up and are really bunged up nasally.
