Hi everyone today I went to Bowes museum with daughter and my sister and her husband it was a bus trip really nice day but I forgot to take my trimbow I always take it between 3 15 and 4 in afternoon with always getting up between 3 30 and 5 in morning I take trimbow early everything being OK had my ventolin with me so weren't to bad but when I got off bus at home my balance was off as if I was tipsy but quickly passed my ears feel abit off so I'm hoping it's just a bit preasure in my ears causing it I've heard peaple say there ears pop alot on buses so I'm hoping this is my problem it's quite unsettled me stupid I know but as I've got older it doesn't take much as soon as got in house I took my trimbow and just trying to settle my sel down it was lovely day very rare I travel on bus I think it might be bit anxiety not sure but was ok during the day so it's being a nice change

Hi, I am not 100% sure - but I doubt missing one dose of Trimbow would make you dizzy - I take Fostair and if I miss a dose, nothing bad happens.

Common causes of Dizzines include ear problems. If it persists ring GP .

I go dizzy quite a bit. I think caused by my neck.

Reading post quite a few with COPD suffer anxiety. . I dpn't know why but it seems so, I take Lorazapam morning and evening..

I would try and take it easy, It's been a while since you lost your balance, That is good/

I'm glad you had a nice day. I'd like to visit the Bowes Museum- to see the famous swan. There are pills to help with balance problems- I'm on them at the moment. I hope you soon feel back to normal, but talk to your GP if you don't.

I would speak with your gp strajghtway. I had a problem with labrynthitis which knocked my balance out and caused terrible problems for 4 years. Nip this in the bud before it becomes a daily problem. They can give you betahistine a tablet called Serc which can stop it coming on. I always carry one I my bag now x

I wouldn't go anywhere other than locally without my Trimbow inhaler either, even if I expect to be home in plenty of time to take it again. I always think that if the car breaks down or something I don't want to be caught out. It's awful how anxious we become! If the problem is with your ear I do hope you get it sorted. Best wishes. x

Glad you had a lovely day out despite the wobble. It may be your ear rather than missing the trim bow that caused you to feel dizzy. Take care xx

I'd be inclined to think it's more to do with fluid in the ears too. I suffer a lot with that, and deafness caused by inner ear infections. I've suffered perforated ear drums a number of times because of the infections. I'm also on Trimbow, and I'm really bad at remembering my morning dose and often take it late . But not experienced your issues.. unless my ears are playing up!

Hi sorry you had a dizzy turn ,I really think it is probably your ears ,I get unsteady and my left ear has a lot of wax,I'm always tipping a bit because of this,I forget trimbow if I am having a good day ,but I take it later and it has no adverse affect on me at all ,panicking seems to make it worse,good luck feel better soon ,take it easy 😊
