Hi Duff

I had the same problem until a few months ago when i was put on a powder inhaler called incruse ellipta 55 (look it up) I had been wheezing for a long time and was driving me mad mostly when laying down in bed at night and just thought it was my copd getting worse but after about 3 weeks on this new inhaler my wheezing had stopped.

Also i can see that it was maybe 5-6 months ago when you stopped smoking so might be your lungs are still clearing from when you smoked.

Good luck if that is what we need

best wishes

Thank you music it’s approximately six months ago since I stopped smoking this might be the issue so I will persevere for a little longer and see what happens duff

Hi Duff1953, I find that my chest wheezes most when I havent totally cleared the mucus from my lungs. I have a facial streamer that I sometimes use with a bit of vicks to loosen things up a bit. Must admit since I have been using a Seteride inhaler things have improved, perhaps ask for a review of your inhaler x

I too have wheezing but it seems to come and go. I would certainly ask for your inhalers to be reviewed.

I hope you find the answer to fix it for you.

I fund a hot drink a quick remedy. I had similar problems when I first stopped smoking, hopefully it will pass. My wheezing woke me up one night, I thought the cat had got into bed with me!
