What are the classic signs of a flare up? Felt like I couldn't get a breath in yesterday, so tried deep breathing, usually goes away but took a long time yesterday. I've just started new meds too, had to switch from dry power as it was a nightmare and couldn't seem to get into lungs with getting tongue in way not to mention reflux and throat blocking up! On clenil now and seems to be better

A flare up is merely these symptoms coming back. This is usual after preventer medication is changed because the new medication takes 8 weeks or so to kick in. So it's not necessarily a flare up but the kicking-in period for your new inhaler.
Further information is in the links in replies on your previous posts.
