Asthma!
Hi all, I'm currently on week 6 run 3, now I'm into the longer runs my asthma is becoming an issue, literally stopping to catch my breath and stabilise my breathing every 1km or so, just wondered if anyone else has similar issues, I use a purple FOSTAIR steroid inhaler

Confused re using blue inhaler
Hi everyone. I was diagnosed with adult onset asthma around 2 years ago and have yet to get it fully under control. I was started on Fostair 100/6 but this was increased around a month ago by the GP to Fostair 200/6. To be honest, I've kind of been muddling through on my own as I haven't really been

Newly diagnosed with brittle asthma and exhausted

appointments since April.
Brittle

dx yesterday as my asthma is still not under control. I was surprised to discover I have
brittle

Can antihistamines help during an asthma flare up ?
Hi everyone! As I am still struggling to bring my asthma under control, I was wondering if antihistamines (desloratadine) could potentially ease the symptoms or stop an ongoing attack that has been lasting for hours if not days ? I am very concerned about my asthma right now because I am going through

Does sauna or steam room help asthma?
I have seasonal asthma which is worse when summer is hot and pollen is high. I’m interested to know if sauna or steam rooms help? My local gym has both and someone has recommended I try them.

Does anyone get asthma with high peak flow
I am getting asthma symptoms regularly. I have had asthma over 20 years and something has changed. I get asthma a lot more often now. Weird thing is woke up this morning coughing and wheezing. Took my peak flow and its really good. Thinking it might not be asthma or my asthma has changed as I get so

Had my tubes from kidney to bladder ( forget their name) moved as they had endometriosis on/around them. My uterus was noted as ‘bulky

Caught between consultants & GP
I was referred to royal Brompton cons' he suggested not all symptoms were asthma so had a challenge test - said I have hypersensitive airways (which I knew). Was then asked to have a Mannitol test - reacted to first dose, needing x3 nebilising to sort asthma attack out! Now stuck between cons' and local
