A bit fed up
In the context of a global pandemic I probably shouldn’t grumble, but I’m a bit down after a phone consultation with my gp this morning. My asthma was diagnosed as severe after a nasty chest infection and (mild) pneumonia around Christmas 2019. Since then I’ve accumulated medications - now on Fostair

Obstructive Sleep Aonoea or not?
Hello I have seen other posts on here that suggests people with mild obstructive sleep apnoea can be provided with CPAP. I have just been turned down by Yeovil hospital as they say I only have mild sleep apnoea and they will not provide CPAP on NHS because it is only mild. I have a SleepOn ring which

My dad 64 with a tracheostomy - Sedation? Steroids? progress
Hi all, My father is currently at a London Hospital in ICU with covid. What began with CPAP then turned into being fully sedated for over 4 weeks and even called in on the 2nd Feb as they did not think he would make it. We have had 4 calls like that! Only once where we had to go in, He seems to stabilize

Cream for facial area
Can anyone advise me please? I was diagnosed with Psoriatic arthritis in June 2018. I was on Methotrexate and changed to Sulfasalazine in August last year. I was under the dermatologist, but they discharged me last year. I have various creams for my skin, but struggle with my face. Can anyone recommend

CPAP user dental problems
Does anyone have any advice on dental care? I'm sure the pressure of the mask cushions on my gums is causing my 'long in the tooth' look. I use a humidifier as am a mouth breather. A chin strap is not possible for me due to the venous malformation I have in my mouth that is the cause of my OSAS. Any

Stridor in MSA
I was originally diagnosed with Parkinson's but last year i developed Stridor and my symptoms both changed and escalated quite rapidly. It is now suggested i may have MSA albeit Stridor is not a common symptom of this. Does anyone else have experience of this? Also, have you tried CPAP as a treatment
