Can anyone help me please? 6 years ago I was diagnosed with mild emphysema a scan said apical fibrosis with patches of emphysematous
changes in different regions of the lungs. my fev1 was 88.5%. Peak flow rate was 6.09 and tlc was 5.79. I don't know what they are now, I've had many chest infections and I know my breathing is so much worse. Earlier this year with a very nasty c/h I had an ordinary x ray and was diagnosed with Bronchiectasis

Calling all asthmatics
I was wondering if any of you other asthmatics have the same problem as me: lungs are fine when I'm running, but as soon as I stop they seem to go into shock and take 48+ hours to stop wheezing, rattling and generally misbehaving. I ran on Tuesday evening for the first time in over a month and fully

First time poster, need help!
Hello everyone! First time posting here, hope you can help me. I smoked between 10 and 40 a day for a year and a half, it's nearly three years ago I quit now, and before smoking I was super fit, never had any issues breathing at all, I could run ten miles and swim long distance etc. I started out smoking

I'm on maximum of all my medication and still my peak flow is ranging from 150 - 70 and my oxygen sats

Fed up with chest infection
I have a chest infection that seems to like me so much that it is refusing to go, I'm on 25mg Prednisolone and second course of Clarithromycin antibiotics this in turn is playing havoc with my brittle asthma, my oxygen sats and peak flow being on the low side. This is not helped either by having a sore

Diagnosed with acute bronchitis, and I'm delighted, ecstatic, over the moon and thoroughly thrilled about it!
That might sound a bit odd, but I thought it was my asthma that was suddenly very much worse. I had to take myself off to the nearest walk-in clinic the other day, and for a nasty few moments they were talking about nebulisers and possible ambulances :( But after 10 puffs of ventolin (10!!! High as

Frustration
It's so irritating when pf doesn't match how you feel. I know this has been said loads of times. I've had so much ventolin I'm shaking but the relief only lasts about 5 minutes. Symptoms aren't severe, I can still walk and talk but my chest just hurts and I'm short of breath sitting down. Yet peak flow

Emotional support for 9 year old
My son was diagnosed asthmatic at 10 months after having a major asthma attack. He has been hospitalised numerous times since then (including HDU) and has tolerated all the tests, drips, nebs, needles, etc. He loved the ward rounds as he loved being the centre of attention as a toddler! Recently

Time to find a new pulmonologist?
Every quarter in Israel I can change doctors and the end of a quarter is coming up (end September). I'm increasingly frustrated with my current pulmonologist, but I'm worried that I won't do much better with a new pulmonologist. All the pulmonologists in town work that are part of my health plan work
