[Phronsias2]

,Hi

Ive been using the blue inhaler four days but still struggle to breath the inhaler helps but not much,I dont want to ring my GP again in case they think Im a time waster, Im a bit worried. I've been taking Mucodyne 375mg no help from those so far

Thanks in advance

Ring them.....you are definitely not a time waster.

I know what it’s like when Ventolin doesn’t work very well.

Have you got a preventer as well?

Ring them now and tell them about the breathlessness and how much Ventolin you are using .

Keep in contact and take care

Agreed - you may need a preventer inhaler.

Yes, you need to ring them. I know I need to contact my GP when my Ventolin is having little or no effect.

Thanks for your replies.

My GP is going to ring me

Thanks again

Frank

Check your technique as well on you tube.

Possible ask your doctor for a spacer device to help get the medicine deeper into your lungs.

I watched these video's 3 mins before my doctor rang me, I asked for a spacer ,I'll pick it up in the morning and steroids

[Bkin in reply to Phronsias2]

Well done. can the pharmacy not deliver to you? Safer I think. Take good care and feel better soon.

[Phronsias2 in reply to Bkin]

Thanks

I'll ring in the morning and ask about delivery, we live in a village and may not deliver outside of the town

Dear Frank I am not a sufferer myself. I joined this group on behalf of my father so that he could find some reassurance from others experience trying different medications My father did not get on with the ventilin but did manage well with the mucodyne and also said he got relief using Fostair ? Inhaler . I hope you start to feel some improvement soon.

I’m sorry I can’t be more helpfu. My father passed a few years ago now so I will need to delete this account. Best wishes
