Asthma and PIP
Hi everyone. I wonder if you can help. I am part way through completing my PIP application for Asthma COPD overlap. I was diagnosed in December 2023. Today I visited nurse for asthma/COPD review and was told that they are now putting my diagnosis as asthma as they have been advised by Respiratory Consultant

Asthma
Hi, After tests etc the doctors have decided I have asthma, not copd. I have been given an inhaler but I still cough a lot at night. Can I ask how long it takes for the medication to really take effect? Have been on it since last Thursday.

Causes Of Breathlessness
My asthma used to be simple. Periodic periods of tight chest and breathlessness. Then it worsened and they diagnosed asthma, many hospital visits later and i got up to severe asthma with poor control. Then I realised that my breathlessness was not simply asthma. There were very sharp attacks that

Does regular exercise really give you an advantage if you have an asthma attack?
If you are fit/do cardiovascular exercise and strength training regularly are you better able to tolerate and survive an asthma attack than someone who doesn’t exercise? Experts might say yes to promote exercise but to what extent do you think it really helps?

Eczema
I am wondering how many people with asthma also see a dermatologist for skin problems. I have bad episodes with eczema inside my ears, and on my legs and arms. Now that summer is coming, I would really love for this to clear up. I notice when my asthma is acting up, I get more breakouts. There must be

Asthma Inhalers And Gerd
I know heartburn, indigestion, Gerd and silent reflux are common hypo syptoms but I thought I would add they can also be a side effect of certain asthma inhalers, particularly steroid ones. The NHS is trying to change as many asthma sufferers on inhalers to the dry powder inhalers (DPI) instead of the

Mucus production ans Asthma
I would like to know about natural mucus suppressants as I makes sense to limit the mucus in the bronchial tube and keep it clear and hopefully make Asthma flare less common, Any suggestions welcome please,
