Asthma Exacerbation Protocol or treatment chart

The title of this document was Asthma Exacerbation which I now know means asthma attack. I been in A &E twice in three days last

Not asthma
I was in hospital for 10 days over Christmas and on all the usual asthma meds , after coming home my temp spiked again and was coughing up green gunk. Then I had to go back in on a blue light but was told by a new consultant after being registered disabled for 27 years by RBH with asthma that I did not

Asthma and chest infection
Hi everyone, first post here. I was diagnosed with mild asthma in late 20s and only ever needed a reliever inhaler occasionally for the first few years. Asthma worsened after having my son and last winter I was also given steroid inhaler. Two weeks ago I started to get flu-like symptoms (despite being

Asthma Books!
I have trying to get more educated about my asthma and am trying to find good books to read on the subject. I see too many books that offer "cures", and it seems like all the books I find do exactly that. It seems like I find either the snake oil books or the expensive texts for doctors. Any recommendations

Never give up!
Three and a half years now and still all clear. Diagnosed with stage 3c, had debulking surgery and a stoma, 3 months chemotherapy and never looked back. I lost my gorgeous red curls, my husband of 38 years left me and my family home was sold. I live my life very differently now at 60 and am happier

Talking about blood...
Hi everybody, I must say this site is certainly a godsend when it comes to giving encouragement and inspiration. So thanks everybody who replies to worries, anxiety and concerns,especially those not fully addressed by GPs because of time restraints. The latest posts on blood are of particular interest

Asthma Apps?
Hi everyone I had my follow up asthma nurse appointment this morning. She suggested I download an app to keep track of my peak flows and inhaler use. Can anyone recommend a good easy to use app for this? Many thanks, Emily xxx

When is asthma asthma and when asthma not asthma?
Hi all! My conundrum is more mundane than it sounds above. For the first time ever I have felt tight chested this winter when I go out in cold, especially if also damp. But is it that or am I just unfit? Just now I am truly reluctant to walk any distance outside if it cold and damp as I feel so uncomfortable

Not convinced it’s asthma
Hi All, this is my first post though I’ve been reading all of yours for a while now. I was hoping you could offer an opinion. I had asthma as a child and I remember the symptoms of an attack. The asthma then settled and I was fine with no meds until I was about 34 (4 years ago). I was experiencing a

May be asthma? But phobia of drs
I have started to become very short of breath and tight chested when exercising or in cold weather conditions. I think this may be asthma (due to family history), but I have a phobia of doctors and so am unsure what I can do. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! :)

Asthma
Is there a way I can get rid of my asthma? I heard there's a treatment in Mexico where they plant leeches in your stomach, but there's not much research about it.

How do I know if I really have asthma...
My GP diagnosed me with Asthma 6 years ago after 3 chest infections. Currently I’m on sertetide, my question is how do I know for sure that I have asthma? I don’t wheeze nor have I ever done so. If it a very windy day I feel that breathing isn’t as easy as it should be, ventolin makes no difference at
