Reclaiming Christmas (sorry, long post)
I spent almost all of November and December 2020 in hospital. A couple of acute admissions (extreme unmanageable pain), a biopsy (took 5 days, rather than 4 hrs), and my debulking op (15 days, not 7). I was finally discharged on 22nd Dec with two carrier bags of medications, a new stoma and a nasty vomiting

Bloods
Had my bloods back - was told only thing of note was the white blood cell count of 17 which is high - I appreciate that mine will be high as I have allergies and I am on meds. Is this normal?

Call asthma doctor? She doesn’t help much. Long term prednisone.
It seems like the fall often bothers my asthma. I was hospitalized in fall 2019 for 6 days for severe asthma exacerbation. Then COVID started. I’ve been on oral prednisone since fall 2019. I’m on daily 25 mg. My doctor is trying to lower the pred. She says it’s not doing anything now my body is just

Allergic reaction to CT contrast dye
Hello Is there a connection between having a thyroid connection and having this kind of allergic reaction? I have read of some overlap in hyperthyroidism, but is the same true of hypo? I have never been allergic to anything in my life, but suffered a (mild) allergic reaction to my second ever CT scan

Biological treatment
Is biological asthma treatment only for a certain age group?. Can people over 50 also qualify for such treatment with severe asthma? .

Dental treatment abroad and travel insurance w/ asthma cover
My mum's due to go to Turkey for dental implant treatment. She has brittle asthma, albeit, controlled. I've found an insurer for the dental aspect, but they won't cover for asthma. Can anybody please give me any suggestions and guidance on what to do? Thank you.

Reconsideration of peak flow as asthma deterioration measurement
I think doctor should reconsider the peak flow device as main effective method for asthma diagnosis, I think such device is only helpful in patients with non inflammatory asthma like COPD or lung fibrosis, I remember when I was 15 I had lost consciousness due to severe asthma flare up, and I remember

Allergies & RA
Hi I have a history of allergies, food as a child and now mast cell degranulation. I wonder if there is a link with RA? I wonder if others have allergies, or perhaps think there is a connection?

Coughing Fits
Hello I'm in a bit of unchartered territory at the moment so would really appreciate some advice from fellow sufferers who may have more experience dealing with it. I was diagnosed with asthma as a baby and had it throughout childhood. When I reached my teens it vastly improved to the point I didn't

Asthma hospital referral
