Asthma classification
Just don’t understand why people with severe asthma are in group 3 and it’s the same classification for group 6 it says severe asthma. What about moderate asthma? The bmj report says people with mild asthma not at any more risk but doesn’t mention moderate. Surely there is a middle line or are asthmatics

Swollen tonsil from asthma?
Good morning all, I was wondering whether any of you have had issues with a single swollen tonsil in relation to their asthma please? The oh-so lovely Dr. Google tells me this can be one of the first signs of tonsil cancer, so I know it's one of those things I should suss out with the doc but just wondered

Sore upper chest
Hi. Wondering if anyone else has had anything similar. My upper chest feels really sore and has for about two weeks. I finished steroids last week as my pf dropped to 500 (usually 650). I have moved house and lots of dust as I’m am waiting for my flooring to be laid. My peak flow is now about 550.

Help managing my asthma
It was only 18 months ago that I was diagnosed with asthma after developing bronchiectasis so I'm still on the journey of understanding how to manage it. Last October my consultant prescribed Ellipta Incruse in addition to the high dose Relvar. This worked really well I was able to exercise etc doing

Vaccine
Hi all, Today my sister and I went for for our vaccines today. Unfortunately, when we got there we found it was the Pfizer they were doing, so because of our allergies we very disappointedly had to decline it & come back home.

Asthma and alcohol
It seems obvious that alcohol has a negative effect on asthma management. However as a I have become a little older the extent of this has become more apparent. I still run a bit even though I'm in my 50s but trying to run in the days after drinking is a horrible gasping affair. The more alcohol the

Child proton pump inhibitor use may increase asthma risk.
To our knowledge, this is the first study to evaluate the relationship between PPI use and the subsequent risk of asthma. We identified a significant risk of asthma among patients using PPIs when compared to the non-PPI population after matching by propensity score and adjusting for age, gender, comorbidities

What priority group for vaccination am I in if I have asthma?
We know there has been confusion about when people with asthma will get the COVID-19 vaccine and what priority group they will fall into. The information we previously shared about priority group six has changed. At the time it was based on communication with the Department of Health and Social Care

Lockdown linked to drop in asthma attacks, GP data suggests.
Asthma attack rates seen at GP surgeries fell significantly during the first Covid-19 pandemic lockdown of 2020, a study suggests. Lower levels of air pollution, fewer cold and flu infections, and the fear of attending doctor surgeries due to Covid-19 were possible reasons for the 20pc drop in cases

Very upset was denied vaccine at the centre!
Hi all On Monday I received the magic text inviting me for the vaccine. I booked straight away following the link. I called both 119 and my GP surgery to ensure that my moderate allergy to Morphine wouldn’t prevent me from having the Phizer jab, which is what I believed was being administered that

Pregnancy and montelukast
Hi everyone, would love to know your thoughts on this. Originally getting pregnant and discussing this with one of my GPs, they were fine with me carrying on with normal medication (seritide 125 2x2 and montelukast). However I then spoke to another GP at the practice who is more specialist in asthma

Most people with asthma
Hi Asthma UK. You say in your post regarding the vaccine and PG 6 query for vaccine that "We now know that for most people with asthma their risk of dying from COVID19 is no greater than that of a person who doesn't have asthma at all." Just wondering.... Could you expand on who "most people" refers

Asthma & Acid Reflux
Hi all. I'm looking for some advice from those suffering from asthma and GERD/ acid reflux.

A chest Xray was clear, and after posting

Responding well to the chemo although had to have an emergency op after the first so now have a stoma. I had a very lengthy consult with the surgeon
