Prof Stephen Durham

Hi everyone I got an email from Allergy UK about immunotherapy for allergy treatments and saw Prof Stephen Durham from the Royal Brompton is on their board, has anyone seen him for allergic asthma as I'm not getting anywhere with current consultant.Hi everyone I got an email from Allergy UK about immunotherapy for allergy treatments and saw Prof Stephen Durham from the Royal Brompton is on their board, has anyone seen him for allergic asthma as I'm not getting anywhere with current consultant.

Allergy testing

I have allergic asthma. I read that your allergies can change over time (I'm sensitive to lobster and shrimp but the other day I had a reaction to salmon).I have allergic asthma.

What type of doctor for allergic asthma?

I have allergic asthma but have been able to keep it mostly controlled with medication. I am wondering if a pulmonologist or respiratory therapist would be a better match than an allergist. I don't want to take allergy shots. What type of doctor do you go to?I have allergic asthma but have been able to keep it mostly controlled with medication.

Allergic diseases increase the risk of adult-onset asthma.

A Finnish study found that the more allergic diseases an individual has, the higher the asthma risk. The number of allergic diseases increases the risk of adult-onset asthma especially in individuals born after 1940, according to a study published in the Allergy journal.A Finnish study found that the more allergic diseases an individual has, the higher the asthma risk.

Treatment options for non-eosinophilic / non allergic asthma

Does anyone know what the treatment options would be for non-eosinophilic / non allergic asthma with no inflammation. I’m at a loss with it!Does anyone know what the treatment options would be for non-eosinophilic / non allergic asthma with no inflammation. I’m at a loss with it!

Just having a vent...

I was immediately filled with horror and explained how incredibly uncomfortable that made me feel, given that I have poorly controlled allergic asthma and am awaiting a referral for biological treatment.I was immediately filled with horror and explained how incredibly uncomfortable that made me feel, given that I have poorly controlled allergic asthma and am awaiting a referral for biological treatment.

Just joined the group. Asthma treatment: one size fits most?

What I fail to understand from the literature is whether asthma is an either/or? Is it allergic asthma or eosinophilic asthma - and I know I am generalizing. And is there a specific treatment for both?What I fail to understand from the literature is whether asthma is an either/or?

Allergies/asthma

Anyone else suffer from allergic rhinitis and allergic asthma ? What have you done or do to get relief? I am absolutely miserable and I can’t seem to figure out what to do anymore about this.Anyone else suffer from allergic rhinitis and allergic asthma ? What have you done or do to get relief?

Bronchiectasis and GP Practise

I have severe allergic asthma (which seems to have tied in to this diagnosis) and use my Nebuliser 4 times a day. Although my Consultant seems knowledgeable my GP practise seems to not know what to do with me.I have severe allergic asthma (which seems to have tied in to this diagnosis) and use my Nebuliser 4 times a day.

TRAVEL INSURANCE

Hi All, I've been diagnosed with late onset allergic asthma which is all under control. I'm going to California in October on holiday and will need travel insurance to cover me in case of an episode whilst I'm away, can anyone recommend a good travel insurance policy which includes asthma cover?Hi All, I've been diagnosed with late onset allergic asthma which is all under control.
