Night cramp and preventer inhaler
Hi I was using Relivar for few years as a preventer for
Brittle
Asthma
. I developed a very coarse throat and so GP changed inhaler to LUFORBEC. I no longer have the throat isse but suffer with severe night cramps. I use Magnesium oil to help this but wondered if it could be the inhaler.

Shoulders
Does anyone else find their shoulder are tense when asthma is playing up? Just recently I've been mostly fine during the day, but afternoon's and evenings are a problem for my asthma, and my shoulders are so tense

Bronchiectasis, asthma and saunas
Hi I don't post on here very often, but I do read the daily posts and learn a lot, as well as enjoying the stories, art, photos and general chat. I haven't seen any poetry for a while though.😊 I have the opportunity to use a private sauna for a few days and just wondered whether this would be good

Ummm…
Went to see the asthma nurse this week - I’m not getting on with Trimbow - and offered to show her my peak flow diary. ‘Why are you measuring your peak flow?’ she asked, with genuine curiosity. The asthma nurse 😳

Asthma flare ups
I am on Fostair, 2 puffs twice a day and up to 8 puffs a day as per asthma plan as required. I have been prescribed Prednisolone several times after flare ups. I do get perfect relief from the steroids, but after a couple of weeks the asthma rears it`s ugly head again. I wonder if the inhaler could

Omeprazole to help asthma and post nasal drip.
Has anyone else been prescribed Omeprazole in case their asthma and throat congestion is caused by acid reflux? I have been taking it for 2 weeks with no difference in symptoms. I was wondering how long it was before anyone saw an improvement as I don't know whether to order more or give them up.

GP/Specialist appointments
I am 70 years old and have had asthma for most of my life. I moved from Lancaster in 2010, where I had a fantastic Dr and fully qualified asthma nurse. I now live in the far west of Cornwall and for several reasons need to see a GP. And that is where the problem lies. In February I had a bad fall and

Defining well controlled asthma
Hi all. I’ve looked around online as to what well controlled asthma is because that’s what we’re supposed to be aiming for, right? Here’s the gist of what I’ve found:- • Few to no symptoms day or night • Perform daily activities without symptoms • Sleeping well • Normal (for you
