Here we go again! Advice appreciated
Hi everyone, not been on here for a while so my brief history this year goes like this: repeated infections proven with sputum tests as always told my chest is clear, consultant started me on Azithromycin 3 times a week, as he now thinks I have broncistatus (can't spell sorry) although I had CT last

Asthma & Peak Flow
Hi there I am Nicola I am new here but figured this would be the best place to discuss my problem. I have had asthma since i was 14 I am now 29, the last time i went to the asthma nurse (Just moved doctors) she was skeptical as to whether I was asthmatic. When she tested my peak flow I can hit it

no air
Noticed over the past few days that even though im getting enough air in my lungs, I'm getting little oxygen. Ventolin helps but I need a fair bit before I feel any benefit. Peak flow isn't too low, about 70%. can anyone relate?

Has anybody got any ideas?
Morning all. I've been swimming before work every morning for the last 8 years and I feel that I have benefitted a lot from doing this. However, over the last few weeks one of those nasty automatic air fresheners has been introduced to the locker rooms. It sprays a foul smelling 'perfume' every 20

Set back
Had a bit of a set back last night. I have done nothing but cough and struggle to breath for 2 years. Got diagnoses of copd stage 2 with 54% lung function a couple of months ago. Gp put me on mucodyne 3 weeks ago and within days felt so much better it was unbliveable. Every one was noticing how well

Another viral exacerbation
Hi Everyone I'm suffering another viral exacerbation of asthma. I absolutely cannot manage if I get a cold. I got the symptoms of a cold last Thursday and by Friday I was seeing the GP as an emergency. Peak flow down to around 270-300 so he started me on Prednisolone. However, I think there was some

Sorry MIA- Home IV antibiotics and now steroid diabetes
Hi guys, I went back and read my post from just getting out of the hospital about three weeks ago. Thank you all for your support and nice posts! I'm about three weeks out of the hospital now, and it's been pretty crazy. I don't even know how much I've paid in doctor's co-pays and prescriptions. It's

Tomorrow and it'l be 8 smoke free weeks, never thought l could do it!
I am feeling pleased with myself despite still on the nicotine gum, l never in my entire life thought l could be smoke free for 8 hours let alone 8 weeks! l do depend on the gum a lot but at least am not taking in any other dreadful chemicals and smoke to clog up lungs, did a peak flow about an hour

Good/normal peak flow but feel short of breath?
My asthma is generally well controlled with Symbicort 200/6, which I take 2 doses in the morning, 1 at night. This past week or so I've had this recurring feeling of not fully being able to catch my breath, I think the correct term is 'breath satiety' I feel like I can't inhale the maximum I should

I rang the asthma advice line today
spoke to a lovely nurse, i rang because EVERY time i run i struggle with my breathing, even when i take my blue before i run i still struggle afterwards, and often during my run. I thought my asthma is generally well-controlled apart from this particular issue but she thinks maybe not. One thing she

Bronchiectasis -very confused
Can anyone help with this? I saw my consultant last week. I've been well for approx 12weeks now. My peak flow has gone up steadily from 280-400/450. Consultant said that bronchiectasis can disappear! That piece of info completely contradicts everything I've read on BLF site and what I've been told by

Housing Associations/landlords and asthma
Hi, I'm looking for advice. I have a housing association flat in London. The HA has known since I've moved in that I'm asthmatic and once before ignored this when I had a window that needed to be replaced as it was not closing and making it impossible to heat the flat properly, hence making my asthma

hi there, I have recently had pre-eclampsia and you can read my post. Just need to know if there is any long term affects to me after this.
I did not develop hellp syndrome but was very close to having a stroke or eclamptic fit. My consultant has said that because i have had pre-eclampsia at such i early stage i am likely to develop it again. Will it be as serious next time? Should i be worrying? I am so scared to have another baby but really
