Hello, welcome and thank you for your kind offer. We were all sorry to hear about Andrea, she was always willing to offer advice and support even when going though tough times herself. I know I miss her posts.

I have a Royal Brompton Brick (as we now call the pumps) however, I know of a brittle asthmatic who would find the chrono pump ideal. She does come on these boards but is often in hospital so she does not post much. I will ask her and I will see if the local PCT will fund the syringes.

Love and hugs
