There is hope!

Back in August 2023 I was diagnosed with asthma and maybe COPD. A Feno test revealed very high inflammation at 166, FEV1 had fallen to 64%, with FEV1/FVC ratio at 58%.

After three months on Fostair 100/6 and Incruse Ellipta my latest Feno test yesterday registered 32 and my FEV1 is now 107%, with FEV1/FVC ratio of 88%.

This forum and its members have been a lifeline to me since I began this journey, I want to thank all those who encouraged me and hope my own experience can be an encouragement to others too!

Great news. Fostair didn’t do anything for me but I’m glad it’s helping you. There is always lots of knowledge and support in this group.
