Is this a CVA attack that lasts so long?! Doubting myself...
I am really confused about what is currently happening to me - is this really an asthma attack, as it is lasting so long? After serious steroids and 3 days and 4 nights, I am still coughing away! HISTORY I started coughing quite a bit about a week and a half ago. I initially thought it was a cold coming

Unauthorised procedure question
Hi folks, I'm having a bit of a dilemma at the moment and decided to see what others feel about this. I'm in the UK if that helps. The short of it is: If you went into hospital for planned surgery and awoke to find that an additional procedure had been carried out without your authorisation, would

Allergy medicine giving me rash!
I have used allergy medication for number of years, the last two weeks it is giving me rash. It all started with side effect of pain medication like paracetamol and co codamol with paracetamol, which can give rash. This all new to me.

What I wish I had asked my GP/asthma nurse (when first diagnosed 😉)
Hi everyone I’ve recently read an article about shared appts with GPs, and whilst it’s not something I would like personally, it does bring up an interesting point - very few people know what to ask when they’re first diagnosed (with asthma)! I know I never asked questions, mainly because at the time

Severe/chronically poorly controlled asthma: what do people do with 'small' flares?
I'm not eligible for any of the new treatments because I have non-
allergic
(normal IgE) and non-eosinophilic
asthma
, which they don't help. Already on max dose Fostair Nexthaler, Spiriva Respimat, Phyllocontin, montelukast.

Asthma or not?
I was diagnosed with viral asthma on 10 September and I’m on the blue (since 10 September) and brown inhaler (since 14 September). I couldn’t get an asthma nurse’s appointment till a couple of days ago. She took a history, did a spirometry test (ok), watched my inhaler technique (good), told me my chest

General anaesthetics for gallbladder removal and asthma.
I am on the active waiting list to have my gallbladder removed. I have a large stone which is giving me a fair amount of discomfort. I also suffer from reflux which I understand can aggravate asthma. I have had asthma for approx. 45 years and the only time I needed Ventolin was approx. once per year
