constant oral thrush
Hello, this is my first time on the forum. I was diagnosed with asthma about 6 months ago. My asthma is pretty much under control ( I think) but I have had oral thrush for nearly 2 months now and am quite fed up. I was given Clenil first and then moved to Qvar 100 at 4 puffs a day in the hope that oral

Hi - I have asthma and normally it doesn't cause too much of a problem for me. When I have a cold, flu or chest infection, I am highly prone to a significant drop in my peak flow. I have this problem on average only once every year to two years. Because I used to sing, my average peak flow count is

should I go back on my preventer?
I stopped taking my symbicort at the end of september as I'd gone on hoiday and forgotten to pack it and as I've not needed to use any inhalers for a few months I decided to stay off it. I've felt no real change at all for the first few weeks but I have been tracking my peak flows. My peak flow is normally

Bronchiectasis and running
Hello, having recently been diagnosed with Bronchiectasis I am finding it very confusing to know how best to manage my condition. My consultant has advised that I continue with running as much as possible as this is generally good for my lungs however I am currently experiencing a chest infection and

Going round in circles with consultant
Hi I've been away from the forum for a while and had problems with my email so have had to create a new login - my old username was KaylaCP. I've had a lot of trouble with poorly controlled asthma and have had several admissions over the last six months. I was diagnosed as a child, had very severe asthma

examination - what are the options? If any...not sure who to trust
Hi All, Just been to my gp today and talked about my concerns with having asthma or developing it. Didn't get much advice what I could do to prevent it though...just not smoking :) I'm doing now my peak flow for a month and then I'm booked with Asthma Nurse for a check. If it turns out I do have asthma

correlation between peak flow and symptoms?
A,m still have a significant increase in symptoms at the moment, not yet brought under better control by the increase in Seretide dosage. No infection, I think, but lots of morning coughing and scary wheeziness, tight chest and more rapid, or harder work breathing during the day, and a strange sensation

Or should that be missing in inaction. I have missed this forum, I do pop by but with work I struggle for time. So in my last post I mentioned I'd given up on after work runs, tried a morning run, got another 5k personal best and sorted out a 10k training plan. So this week has looked something like

What constitutes an attack?
Hi, background: still learning to live with this, asthma hit last year, probably heightened hormonal sensitivity to allergens with perimenopause/ menopause. But I also get exercise induced asthma so take a couple of puffs in advance. Been coughing a lot all summer, completely stuffed nose etc, but

Currently being diagnosed
Hi all, I'm new here. I'm currently going through the long process of confirming if I have asthma. When I was around 5, my doctor at the time said I was on the borderline of being asthmatic, but at the time I didn't really have symptoms so it was left at that. Fast forward 20 years and my hay fever started

Symbicort not Working Properly?
I have been on symbicort (alternating between 200/6 and 400/12 during flare ups) for the past year, which I know is a combination of formoterol & busesonide. Prior to this, I was on a clenil modulite inhaler (200mcg twice daily) which I believe was a different steroid (beclometasone dipropionate?) The

Waters breaking but no contractions
Hello, I am hoping someone has had a similar experience to me and can help put my mind at ease. Yesterday morning (at 37 weeks & 5 days) I had a little gush after coming out of the shower. I wasn't 100% sure it was my waters but I had been to the toilet before my shower and the water on the floor
