Struggling to tolerate asthma meds
Has anyone had a bad reaction to Fostair or Flutiform? Clenil isn't helping to control my asthma but I can't seem to tolerate the newer stronger preventers. I'm limited to what I can use due to a dairy allergy. Would really appreciate some guidance . Thank you ❤️

Asthma and copd advice
Hi all, so I have had asthma for the last 20 years or so and recently told I have very mild signs of copd. So I'm trying to give up smoking and loose weight as I'm about 50 pounds overweight. Just looking for some advice on a few things, I'm told what you eat and drink can effect asthma but I'm not

Bowel endo surgery
I was diagnosed with endo via lap four years ago. At the time i had an endometrioma removed but they left some endo (including a nodule) on my left uterosacral ligament as it was too close to the ureter. I also had mirena fitted at the same time and discharged straight after the surgery. Although there

Vitamin D
As my asthma has been out of control, I rang asthma UK. I received lots of good advice, including to look at taking vitamin d. I then received my latest bloods showing a vitamin d deficiency. So I have ordered my vitamin d with my tesco delivery. Has taking vitamin d helped others with their asthma

Asthma or COPD?
Hello. Apologies for this rather long post. I have been asthmatic all my life (except the first year!) and am now 73. My asthma is pretty well controlled with daily Symbicort and Ventolin occasionally when needed. I can ride a cycle 15 miles (but admit to struggling with hills although I do have

Frequently of asthma attacks
At Christmas I had an asthma attack (caused by a cold) and in March this year I had another one after having Covid. My question is two asthma attacks in one year consider bad? Winter is my worst time for my asthma.

Anyone else had similar

Change of Hospital
I was diagnosed with asthma a year and a half ago, by my gp which was then confirmed by my nearby hospital, hospital A, who then basically when quiet. They are now saying this was an admin error. Then three months or so when on holiday in the next county I had a nasty asthma attack and was taken to

Emotion, asthma and the full moon
I have been gasping for air and reaching for salbutamol this morning. I guess there is nothing unusual in that ! Do my fellow asthmatics believe there is a connection between stress and asthma, between anxiety and asthma, and between emotion and asthma ? Have my fellow coughers noted any connection

Has anyone done sublingual immunotheray (SLIT) or the injection style (SCIT)? Did it make you feel terrible/set of your asthma symptoms?
Hey all, I started SLIT (grass+ragweed) in November of 2022. I was feeling find before I started it (just on my asthma control medication + no symptoms/sleeping well able to go about my life), but since I've started taking it have found it sets off my asthma (mildly, so I'm taking more rescue inhaler

I learnt something last week which is worth sharing. I had to go to a and e a while ago when on holiday. It was at a big city hospital and a couple of days after leaving hospital they asked me to return and see a respiratory nurse. I was keen as my gp practice has lost its asthma nurse, which is probably

Life After Colectomy - Colon Resection
Hello. Can anyone tell me realistically their experience after colectomy- colon resection surgery? I have been offered a left hemicolectomy and want to know what the true recovery is. Surgeons are minimizing the recovery and say once healed you will probably not notice anything. I have a hard time

Emergency Medications
I recently had my second very nasty asthma attack in six weeks. I could feel it coming but neither gp nor hospital team nor later 111 would ring back or talk to me as my readings deteriorated. So I had my attack at 2 in the morning on sunday, and 999 sent out paramedic with nebulisers which stopped

5 Year old with asthma
Hello all. My son is 5 years old (6 in February) and was diagnosed with asthma 3 years ago. He was a very normal healthy baby boy. When he was age 2 he started getting sick literally every single day after he ate any type of food. For a year they gave him steroids and he gained a lot of weight. At age

Is my asthma nurse correct?
Hi everyone! During my last check up, my asthma nurse said that bronchiectasis came under the umbrella of COPD. I replied that it didn't and was a separate condition. She wouldn't have it, and I didn't want to waste valuable appointment time arguing. Is she right? I'd appreciate people's opinions on
