Hydrocortisone for Asthma
Hi yesterday I was changed from taking 40mg prednisolone to 40mg hydrocortisone for my asthma because I have been diagnosed as having tertiary adrenal insufficiency which is where your hypothalamus is suppressed. Does anyone else take hydrocortisone for asthma or any brrathing conditions?

Hydrocortisone for Asthma
Hi all Yesterday I was changed from Prednisolone 40mg daily to Hydrocortisone 40mg daily taken over four doses. I have been diagnosed as Tertiary adrenal Insufficiency which means my hypothalamus is suppressed. I am nervous about the change. After all these years of being on prednisolone it feels odd

New Asthma diagnosis
Hiya This is my first time posting so bear with me! I had a chest infection which turned out to be pneumonia in July of this year (i am in my late 20s) and since then have been diagnosed with asthma. How do you know when your inhaler is running out? I have tried tracking it but then i get busy and life

Asthma review
Hi there I’m new to this and I wondered if anyone else has had the same experience. I’ve recently moved to a new surgery. My old surgery had a fab asthma nurse and she was up to date and it was reassuring to see her. This new surgery doesn’t have a asthma nurse so my review was done by ‘the nurse’. She

Asthma after exercise?
I’ve been wondering about this for a little while. Does anyone know why asthma sometimes comes on AFTER exercise rather than during? I run semi-regularly and often I can run sort-of ok but then for a few hours (or longer depending on the race) I will suffer with my asthmatic cough. This seems counter-intuitive

Severe Asthma Advice
Hi Everybody, Just joined & hoping to get some advice.... My husband has had asthma for his whole life but has had it under control. He hadn’t had an attack since he was a child. Last year he was injured & had a collapsed lung. Since his accident his asthma has been unpredictable & occasionally uncontrollable

Blue Inhaler (salbutamol)
Hi everyone yesterday someone called PMR pete said an interesting comment that got me thinking. You can only have 8 puffs of salbutamol in 24 hour period. This is not true as I did explain but it just shows how we are all told very different information from our professionals. On the Asthma UK asthma

Asthma Review with a Matron
I have completed an asthma review with a totally new community matron who has never met me before. It went well but I definitely knew more about asthma than her. I am to continue on 40mg prednisolone until peak flow stabilises. I am to continue on Symbicort 200/6 two puffs six times a day. I am to start

Primary Care
What is it with local asthma nurses disagreeing with hospital consultants? How is this meant to help us to manage our asthma? Why are asthma patients not trusted to manage there asthma following hospital consultants advice? It is such a waste of nhs resources and money!

If you suffer from Eosinophilic Asthma, this may interest you: https://www.inspire.com/groups/eos-connections/ **UPDATE FOR THIS POST - Although the above mentioned seems OK for Asthma in General, I've since searched for Eosinophilic Asthma and the number of Search Results and Dates are somewhat sparse

Do I have asthma?
About 2 month ago a couch started then wheezing and shortness of breath, recent I visited my doctor he prescribed me with a reliever inhaler and it's been working does that mean I have asthma?

Autumn Asthma Update
I have contacted my care coordination centre who are open seven days a week 9am to 5pm. I have started my rescue prednisolone 40mg for seven days. Hopefully this will bring my asthma under control. I have ordered more inhalers as well as the last thing I want is to run out of inhalers. The community

Eosinophilc asthma earache and toothache
I was diagnosed with eosinophilc asthma in August - I am waiting for mepolizumab. I have also been suffering with earache in both ears, toothache and what I thought was GERD - I blamed my inhalers for this, however omeprazole and gaviscon did not ease things. Some research has revealed that the earache

Asthma and Croup
Hi there, this is my first post and I suppose I am really just looking for some advice or tips from parents who have had experience in dealing with this. My son is 2 1/2 and since he was around 9mo has been experiencing "Asthma like" symptoms. At 13 months he was admitted to hospital for 3 days, and
