What are your coping strategies when your asthma is pretty bad and when you know you're going to have to live with it for the rest of your life ?

How long does a flare last ?
Hi! I would like to know how long an asthma flare up is supposed to last especially one that is caused by a viral infection (flu) ? And what drugs do you usually use to treat it ? I read that there was a difference between a flare up and uncontrolled asthma. How can we know if symptoms are caused by

Asthma deaths in England and Wales 'highest in a decade' BBC article
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-49277813 What the article ignores is that a lot of suggestions made by the asthma death panel have been ignored (some which are really easy/simple), and it glosses over that 2/3 deaths are preventable if proper care was carried out. Yes pollution has made asthma worse

Feeling a bit rubbish
Today I had an appointment with my asthma nurse. I’ve already had a few appointments with her this year due to inhalers changing etc but today was for a check up because I’ve been trying to stop a flare from flaring (if that makes sense?) Anyway, I have a great relationship with my asthma nurse (she

Help! Kenalog vs Omalizumab
So after years of fighting; you’ve got asthma, you’ve not got asthma. Flare ups where needing steroids every 10 weeks. We finally had a plan, go to nhs England for Omalizumab if funding not granted go with Kenalog (steroid injection). Now I’ve been told, to get Omalizumab I need to lose 9kg before

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.

Questions about severe asthma
Hi! I decided to write this post because I still don't really understand how the diagnosis of severe or brittle asthma is made. My whole life I only had very mild asthma but a viral infection made my asthma worse (there are a few posts about this) and all of a sudden I started having symptoms everyday

How fast can an attack come and go?
Hi, I’m newly diagnosed with asthma; less than three weeks. I take Seretide 500 and Ventolin accuhalers. Manifestations of my asthma so far have been very textbook: coughing, tightness, shortness of breath, and whistly wheezing. A couple of days ago I was spraying bug-spray, something I’ve done thousands

Asthma!
Hi all, I'm currently on week 6 run 3, now I'm into the longer runs my asthma is becoming an issue, literally stopping to catch my breath and stabilise my breathing every 1km or so, just wondered if anyone else has similar issues, I use a purple FOSTAIR steroid inhaler

Confused re using blue inhaler
Hi everyone. I was diagnosed with adult onset asthma around 2 years ago and have yet to get it fully under control. I was started on Fostair 100/6 but this was increased around a month ago by the GP to Fostair 200/6. To be honest, I've kind of been muddling through on my own as I haven't really been
