Using an Expired Ventolin inhaler
A friend just gave me an unused Ventolin inhaler. A doctor friend of her’s claimed that it’s safe for me to use, even though it expired in 2018. Appreciate any replies🙂

I learnt something last week which is worth sharing. I had to go to a and e a while ago when on holiday. It was at a big city hospital and a couple of days after leaving hospital they asked me to return and see a respiratory nurse. I was keen as my gp practice has lost its asthma nurse, which is probably

Inhalers- and value for money?
Some years ago I was advised , that in order to check the contents of my inhaler I should remove the pressurised phial from the applicator and suspend the phial in a tall glass of water. If it sinks ,the indications are there is medicine present and if it floats there is probably little or no medicine

Post Covid Queries!
Hi! I tested positive for Covid 2 weeks ago… it’s caused an asthma flare but luckily I got prescribed steroids for a week which, along with my Fostair and Ventolin inhalers, kept things stable enough for me to stay home. My GP signed me off for a further week after my 1st week of self certifying, however

Changed my consultant
From a few days I am experiencing bronch exacerbation with increased sputum which is dark. This time I decided to go to a different doctor who is also a bronch specialist. He told that I will have to have azithromycin long term; 6-8 months per year. The next thing he did is to change my inhaler from

salted OJ and assisting lung function
if anyone here is taking their cough medicine, inhalers, plenty of fluids and still struggling a very good hack is salted OJ quite regularly - adds a decent amount of potassium that is not typically added via supplements. Boy, as soon as you have a glass you can notice an immediate help. Too much sugar

I have run out of feathers to spit!
I saw the GP today and we had a "discussion" on prescribing and testing T3. She has been forbidden by the health authority to prescribe or test, and i can only discuss this with an Endo. She agreed I knew a lot more than her, but even so regarded T3 as unnecessary and dangerous, and warned me I was
