Hi ladies, has anyone had a Hartmann’s Reversal?
Hello lovely ladies. I hope you are all managing the social distancing and self isolating okay - like we need the extra challenge! I’m 9 months post op, completed first line chemo and now having Avastin until September. I still have a small lesion on my liver but I’m hoping Avastin will keep it at

Hi, my son’s asthma is cured out of come and he has started to be triggered by our washing liquid especially when the clothes first come out of the machine. Can anyone recommend a perfume free or asthma friendly washing powder/liquid? Thank you

Hi my sons asthma is currently not under control and he has started to be triggered by the washing powder we use, especially when the clothes first come out the washing machine! Can anyone recommend a non perfumed or asthma friendly washing powder/liquid? Thank you

Advice After Discharge
I’ve just been discharged from a week in hospital from 2 asthma attacks. I’ve only been recently been diagnosed with asthma a few years ago so I’m still kind of new to all of this. Should I be calling my Asthma nurse/GP for a follow up appointment? Does anyone go straight back to work after you’ve been

Need to improve my health but asthma is a worry
I’d love to start running again but have asthma and joint problems.. my knees seem to go as well as my chest. Any suggestions for knee supports and how to improve my lung function when running. My asthma is controlled and I hardly have my blue inhaler unless I get a chest infection. I would love to hear

Asthma?
Hi all, My 9 year old son has had a cough for 3 or so months, it’s a dry cough and he only coughs once but happens every hour or so and sometimes more if he’s talking a lot, it doesn’t bother him at night or when he’s exercising and his chest is clear with no wheeze. I have severe asthma so at the back

asthma and lifestyle changes
Hi all So the doctor has lowered my symbicort and put me on the smart plan, so i use it in the morning and evening but i can also use it up to 6 times during the day if needed. but the biggest change is that i have not had a cigarette since monday and i have cut down on the fizzy pop drinks. Next step

Respiratory nurse home visit
I am due to have a home visit from my consultant’s respiratory nurse following a recent hospital admission and wondered if anybody has had experience of this as I have no idea what to expect. I have severe asthma and am having ongoing complications, and my asthma keeps deteriorating despite several medications

Xolair Approved!
After 2 long years of persistence and patience, along with many, many attacks, today I was finally told that I have now been granted approval to start Xolair! I was super nervous going into my appointment today after “failing” my methacholine challenge test last week. Luckily, I have an asthma specialist

My journey to date.
I was diagnosed with OC in july 2018. My ca125 was 6800. After 3 rounds of carbo/paxl I had debulking surgery & a total colon removal in Nov 2018. I received 3 further rounds of just carbo after ,,due to severe nerve damage to fingers with paxl. If I was to continue it would have affected my ability

Steroids and weight gsin
I have 5 collapsed discs, as well as
brittle
asthma
and a bone marrow issue which leaves me constantly anaemia. Sounds like excuses and I guess in some ways it is because I think what’s the point. What’s the point in doing it all just to get knocked on my behind again.

Low mood with asthma flare up?
Is there a link between low mood and asthma flare ups? I’ve had an asthma flare up this past week and have also felt a bit depressed/ not myself this week. Just wondering how common that is and if there’s a link?
