Ventolin and other Inhalers
When I was a child ( a little one!) I had fairly constant asthma. At the age of 11 I was diagnosed as having a strong allergy to feathers and wool, among other things. Of course, when I had asthma my mother would wrap me in bedding - wool blankets, feather quilt. Feather pillows. D'oh. At around that

Effects of Intermittent Fasting on the Circulating Levels and Circadian Rhythms of Hormones
Obesity is a frequent topic. And there has considerable discussion about various ways of managing eating in order to help control weight. Of these, one of the most discussed in recent years has been intermittent fasting and variations. In that context, several times members have asked about the relationship

Cortisol blood test
Hi again, please excuse my apparent ignorance, probably brought about due to poor or insufficient advice from the Medical profession. I have two questions: I have been told by my GP to have a Cortisol blood test. The only information given to me is to have it done at 9 am. I asked him if I should stop

Confused
Hi, Could someone explain the purpose of inhalers? I have COPD and am constantly breathless whether I use an inhaler or not. I have tried so many different ones and have not noticed any difference in my breathing with any of them. The only thing I have ever noticed is that two I have tried caused

Inhalers stopped until next year
My ventolin has been stopped until next year. I've been getting inhalers regularly all year and they have advised that I up my Kelhale - which when I do, I need more ventolin because it irritates me, they know this but now my ventolin has been stopped until january next year. I don't know what to do

Inhalers
I’ve got Asthma and Bronchiectasis and I’m having problems finding an inhaler which works for me. I was on Seretide 250 for years but after two particularly bad chest infections my breathing deteriorated, courses of steroids helped slightly and I was given Spiriva Respimat and after a few days I had

Taken off Inhalers
Ok, met the new Plumo last week, have to say it didn’t go as expected. Without question I have had chronic bronchitis type symptoms now for many years and feel pretty crap most of the time. Wheeze, inability to get a deep breath, sense breathing is not good, morning cough and phlegm. My MEF25-75 is

Add on drugs that are usually prescribed by a consultant part 1 (LAMAs, add-on inhalers, theo)
Hi everyone - it’s been a while! Here is the next (probably long awaited 😅) infomercial! Here are some of the drugs commonly prescribed by a local consultant. That being said, GPs can (and do) prescribe a lot of them, but I’d suggest if you’re on one of them and are not under a hospital consultant (

xolair: how long to see the effects?
I just started on Xolair after fighting for year to get it. Seeing a private consultant who did all the necessary tests helped, big time. May I ask, in your experience, how long it took you to see the effects, and how you knew it has started to work? The injections are 600 mg once a month which must

Worst allergy season change we've ever had. Advice appreciated!
Hi everyone, first time on the forum and really hoping for some support or advice. My fiance started showing her typical asthma flare ups she gets in mid September through October. Typically, while not fun, these go away eventually with steroids and inhalers. This year, things escalated much worse

Call asthma doctor? She doesn’t help much. Long term prednisone.
It seems like the fall often bothers my asthma. I was hospitalized in fall 2019 for 6 days for severe asthma exacerbation. Then COVID started. I’ve been on oral prednisone since fall 2019. I’m on daily 25 mg. My doctor is trying to lower the pred. She says it’s not doing anything now my body is just

Help! Trepidation setting in…
Having not run since I was 11 years old (I remember that day well….) I have decided that I need to get off of my bottom and take my health more seriously. Having largely ignored insulin dependent diabetes since my diagnosis, due to the fact that I am invincible, having slowly and blatantly increased
