Feeling so deflated another visit to a and e today and left with yet another diagnosis of conditions and more medications. Feel like im a walking pharmacy and have more conditions than I understand but still seem to get ill with asthma!!

Can relate a lot to that.

I hope things improve for you.

So sorry to hear, think many of us can end up feeling a bit broken with all our various tests and treatments! Hoping that in time the new diagnoses/meds will help you feel all the better.

I'm guessing you meant not 100% convinced?! If so, do you have anyone on your medical team you trust enough to chat through your concerns with? Or maybe you could call the Asthma Nurse helpline (and/or similar helplines on the non-asthma charity services) to discuss a few of your thoughts and see if they have any suggestions about seeking 2nd opinions and similar? I always think if you have a feeling something's being overlooked or misdiagnosed it's worth asking more, even if you end up being convinced it's right in the end.
