Increased awareness of your asthma?
Is anyone else finding they're increasingly aware of their asthma right now/finding they're reaching for their inhaler a bit more often even though they generally feel well? I'm fairly mildly asthmatic but have had a history of health anxiety, so reckon the combo is making me sub-consciously scan for

Sever asthma yes or no ?
Hi I contacted the government support line to get clarity on the criteria they are using for severe Asthma . Please be aware that their criteria for severe asthma is more stringent than that on the Asthma U.K. website . The minimal requirement for re diving a letter is high dose steroid inhaler plus

Asthma and Coronovirus
Hi, I’m 18 and have asthma for many years, but just got diagnosed 8 months ago. This Coronavirus is really scaring me, It’s getting me depressed and giving me anxiety. I stay at home but my family members go outside like nothing matters, they just say I’m overreacting, they don’t understand the stress

Category of asthma
Hi, can anyone tell me if by taking one puff of Symbicort 200, morning and one puff at night, what level of asthma is this classed as? No other medication and asthma seems fine overall. Weighing up what category I would fall in

Asthma
Hi I just wondered if anyone else feels like they can’t take deep breaths but they’re still breathing? I don’t know if this is due to anxiety of all the stress going on right now or it’s my asthma flaring up? I’m not wheezing when I breath in though? Anyone feel the same?

Heartbroken
My husband is scheduled for a Colostomy on 5-08-2020. He said he is scared, I am crying because my husband is not scared of anything. He went through Chemo and Radiation treatments at the same time in 2014. He been in remission for five years but his cancer left a terrible wound that won't heal. They

Coronavirus and Asthma
Hi everyone, I’m young (21) and have had asthma my entire life. It was bad when I was very young, but in my teenage years it just became mild. Besides asthma (and anxiety) I am otherwise healthy. I was wondering how someone like me would fare with coronavirus if I got it.

Thank You Asthma UK!
I’m not sure about any of you but the information, guidelines and content put out by Asthma UK this weekend has been amazing! Each day has brought further clarity as to what we need to be doing and who needs to do it. I’m so incredibly impressed but also massively thankful! It’s abundantly clear

Asthma and Bronchectisis
I have asthma and bronchiectasis, both well managed. I would not say they were either severe and wondered if I should class myself as vulubrable?

Asthma & staying indoors
Not sure if anyone else is having similar problems but I’m finding being stuck indoors is actually making my asthma worse at the moment. Guessing it’s the mix of dust / indoor pollutants etc. Trying to keep everything super clean, but still struggling. Every time I feel chesty I think, “Oh no is this

Anxiety -
So like most of you at the moment., Anxiety is high. I assume my asthma is manageable, I've possibly not been the best at being on top of it at times. A few weeks ago I had a cold or something flares my asthma and have just got a little more on top of it. Peak flow (on night one this week) is 625 ish

Define severe asthma
Hi All, I'm a bit confused about the asthma part of covid-19. My work do have the ability for me to WFH, although they are trying to get as much people in to the office as possible and at present it has been agreed but this could change and anytime and I want to make sure before I insist on doing it

What should I do?
I have a stoma from what was thought to be a permanent tracheostomy which I decanulated after 7 years. Does this increase my chance for infection what can I do to prevent that

Asthma + Hashimotos ... Am I at risk from catching Corona virus?
Been trying to find a straight answer to this so please forgive me if I’m repeating a question. I have Moderate Asthma along side Hashimotos and a couple of other things like IBS etc. My question is should I self isolate given I have asthma and Hashimotos??

How much of a high risk am I?
Hello all, I'm just wondering about this dreaded coronavirus and how much of a high risk I am and would I possibly get the serious complications. So.... I'm 35 years old and had asthma since very young, my asthma seems quite well controlled for the most part. I never usually get colds perhaps once
