Bronchiectasis?
I was on Clenil or
Fostair
(neither seemed enough), and with Montelukast added seemed to get through more colds without developing bronchitis. I would still feel a bit rubbish but get a bit of a dryer cough.

Spiriva
Just been to the hospital for my monthly xolair injections and my asthma nurse is not happy with my breathing or the amount of ventolin I'm using so he has prescribed me spiriva as well as 200/6
fostair
, I also take 5mg of Prednisolone daily. Anyone else had good results on spiriva?

Bisoprolol and others.
Over the last few months i have been prescribed Bisoprolol, Oxybutynin and
Fostair
( As a replacement for Seretide). Over this period of time I seem to have lost most of my energy. I need to know which, if any, of the new meds is to blame. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Cheers.

Advice please
On
fostair
and spirivo inhalers. My doctors are pretty useless giving advice, hoping someone can tell me if this is normal and how long flare ups last. Thanks all

Fostair and coughing
So, six weeks go by with no let up in the cough and I decided to stop taking the
Fostair
. My cough all but disappeared within 24 hours. I'm convinced that
Fostair
was the culprit. Has anyone else experienced this effect? Also, it's almost impossible to clean off the spacer that I use.

Seretide v Fostair
I saw the respiratory nurse a month ago and she got me to change from my usual Seretide 500 to
Fostair
. All was well for a week or so then my SATS went off a cliff and my heart rate shot up by 20% or so. I have now changed back to the Seretide and I am slowly picking up.

MEd's changed due to cost
My Dr's surgery have said I'm not allowed Symbicort anymore as it's too expensive and they're changing me to
Fostair
. They sent out a letter to me and others, by the look of it, to let us know. No appt to discuss, just that my prescription from now on will be
Fostair
! Not very happy.

Hoping for diagnosis
And not yet diagnosed with COPD however I am on
fostair
and my second lot of steroids and antibiotics this winter due to flare up of my symptoms. I asked the Dr last time I went if she thought I had COPD and she said maybe?

Reflux and asthma?
Since then I have been on
Fostair
, Spiriva and Salbutamol. I have to take montelucast from the start. In addition I have a nasal spray and cetirizine. I also take Omeprazole and Peptac acid. Oh yes ... and I take theiCal-D3. Which to be honest, none have made a great deal difference.

Fostair not working
Hi, I am taking
fostair
and ventolin. It's just not working anymore - I can't breathe properly and am finding work difficult. When I see my nurse, she says it's the time of year etcetc. What options can I suggest to her so she doesn't just brush me off again? What has worked for you?

fostair
to get back in control of an asthma flare up.... however she didn't say how long for? I know till I'm better which I'm not sure I'm quite there yet but how long is too long?

Aerosol sprays
I'm on xolair injections, high dose
fostair
, and ventolin I also have my own nebuliser at home. Not getting any relief. Now thinking I'm going to have to start high dose steroids again which really pees me off. Just because of a thoughtless act by a probably still smelly teenager!

Asthma Complications
To add insult to injury I now find that
Fostair
is not working, after taking it for around 15 years. I wonder if I am being given placebos or maybe the dose is reduced without my knowledge or whatever.

Not sure anymore
Since then I have had ventolin,qvar,symbicort and
fostair
. I also use montelukast. They only thing that has helped me is prednisolone - 40mg a day for 8 days and I am good for four or five weeks. The inhalers do very little. A blood test shows raised ige of 527 but no triggers.
