Bad spell of asthma
My partner has had asthma all his life but has been well controlled as an adult. Since January he has suddenly had problems. He was taking salbutamol & lowest dose seretide. He has now been increased to Seretide 500 & given atrovent inhaler & a nebuliser. How often should he be using the atrovent nebules

Super sensitive
Hi all, I'm a long time lurker, first time poster. I had asthma as a child for years and it magically disappeared when I reached my teens. It came back with a vengeance in my late 20s and I started to experience my first ever attacks. Unfortunately my asthma has never behaved in the standard way. I

since I was born and have been in ICU more times than I care to mention so I cannot describe how happy I am that I didn’t have to stop to use my puffer today - it shows that the C25k works!! 😊😊😊

Post op intimacy struggles
Hi all, sorry for an awkward post, any advice would be helpful... don’t feel I can ask anyone else as they don’t really understand. So 6 months ago I had invasive endo surgery.. and a second op 10 weeks ago to reverse my temp stoma affectionately called Stella. Needless to say during the last 6 months

Does anyone else find being on their laptop triggers asthma attacks?
Hello, pretty new to asthma, was only diagnosed a year ago & even then it wasn't clear-cut, but the nurse said "If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck ..."! A heavy cold which started 10 days ago was basically responsible for triggering my asthma off, but now I seem to get an attack every time I'm

Kelp to help asthma
Has anyone had benefit from taking Kelp to help their asthma? As my asthma had taken a downturn I have spent a fortune on supplements to help! Tried most things ! Then about 2 weeks ago I started on kelp capsules, taking three a day and not the recommended one a day! They seemed to make a big improvement

Asthma App
Hey guys! I keep a symptom and salbutamol diary in the notes on my phone but it’s getting a bit messy and cumbersome. I’ve tried downloading some apps to track these and it is much easier, however I haven’t found an app that I’ve really fallen in love with. Does anyone here use an asthma app of any

Injections to control asthma
I've been on the usual meds to control my asthma and now my consultant (at Glenfield, Leicester) is putting me forward for monthly injections to replace all the meds. Anyone have experience of this?

Husband still suffering eosinophilic asthma mentioned but not yet diagnosed.
Hi, my husband has been ill since 27th December, he has had hospital visits and turned away saying he has sinusitis, a cold etc... then was admitted at the end of January. They still haven't diagnosed asthma but said it is likely eosinophilic asthma due to extremely high eosinophils. His symptoms are

Propranolol with asthma
Need advice. Has anyone taken propranolol with asthma before? I would like to start taking them for my palpitations but understand they can effect asthmatics. I haven’t had an asthma attack for about 10 years but still take medication daily for my asthma.

Longer courses of Prednisolone
After a 3 weeks of 5 day course stop restart then 5 days then stop for one and had to restart 5 days and a reducing down dose. I have been thinking that 5 days of prednsiolone is not enough for me. However its hard to tell as I think it depends of the trigger laryngitis and then a virus plus hayfever

Is it really asthma ?
I'm new to this forum and I've decided to post my questions here because I've been struggling to breathe for 2 months and it's not getting any better. Before I start, I should probably mention that I used to have asthma when I was very little until age 5 and I suffer from allergies. But after that age
