Had asthma,21 years,bronchietasis, 11 years type 1 diabetic 46 years, arthritis 29 years, regional pain syndrome and carpel tunnel 4 years. Decided breathing was taking over so take sterima allergy spray every 2 days. Stopped me coughing all the time. Cough maybe twice a day. Take dida tablets and prebiotics, to repair 11 yesrs damage antibiotics have done to my stomach. Every 6 weeks was on antibiotics. Sterima stops nose running so much. Lungs are clearer. Asthma test was best its been for ten years. Normalky blow 400 tp 450. Am now on 550. Dont eat wheat bloats stomach eat sour dough. Take vit b12 helps with energy and memory. Zinc. And multi vitamins. Have loads more energy. Breath a lot better. Only ill once a year during winter now. Doctors couldnt help me. Decided to try my own things. Dont know if they work for everyone or jst me?

Glad you’re feeling better👍🏼it’s great to hear that people are the experts in their own condition. Drs seem to know very little about bronchiectasis, and don’t really seem to care either!

Good luck to you 😊
