PD for a Type II Diabetic
Does PD work if you are a type II diabetic? I understand that the fluid that you fill your abdominal cavity with is a sugar-based solution. Does that mean it has an effect on your blood sugar levels? I'm diabetic but only use an oral medication right now and do not require insulin shots. I'm just concerned

Really Struggling with Fostair
Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with asthma last spring after contracting Covid. It started relatively mild, I was prescribed a Ventolin blue reliever and a brown, steroid inhaler (Soprobec) which I took every day with a spacer. My symptoms seemed very manageable and I only had a minor flare up when I had

Asthma misdiagnosis. Could it be heart issues? Any advice would be great 😊☺️
Hi everyone! I am twenty years of age. For as long as I can remember, I have always hated exercising. This is because I have always struggled to breathe properly, when exercising. As a young child, I quickly grew to despise going on family walks, because of this. It was suspected I could have asthma

Odors and stress as triggers in poorly managed asthma
When my asthma is poorly controlled, I get airway constriction within seconds from odors (fragrance, cooking etc) which goes away with a rescue inhaler (if the odor source is removed). I understand that the odorous chemical itself is not an "allergenic" substance. Is the pathway of the constriction

Healthy breakfast
Filled me up and gave me energy after an extended fast, did not significantly raise glucose or insulin, cooked in butter so high in natural fats and delicious. What more could you (well, me at least) want?

Slowly but surely.
Was just getting used to impared breathing due to the hot weather. When my on the phone review came up. So now, just finished four days steroids. 6 tablets every morning. Didn't have any real effect for two days and then felt a lot better but now struggling again. I suppose it's all those chores I had

Lost inhaler
Hope all are well. Just back from a 4 day break away, just what we needed! Anyway I have somehow lost or misplaced (or put somewhere safe) my Fostair inhaler. I don’t have a spare, but have spare ventolin. I last took it yesterday morning (sat) so have currently missed (almost) 3 doses. I take Fostair

They describe the
carbohydrate insulin model
of weight loss thus: [i] ".. food and drink that contain large amounts of carbohydrates cause a spike in circulating insulin levels. The hormone drives fat cells, or “adipocytes,” to store the excess calories, which reduces the availability of these

Salbutemol alternatives?
Hi. I daren't use my Salemol relief inhaler because it makes my tremors 10 times worse, well, so bad I can't live independently with it. My hands and fingers are all over the place. Are there any alternative inhalers which don't do this?

Hi all -- Has anyone's GP or specialist ever OKed the use of Qvar and Seretide together? I've been taking Seretide 500/50 during the current exacerbation and for the last year. It kept me alive, but not enough to work and live a normal life. 3 days ago, out of desperation, I started using Qvar100 as

Do inhalers help for COPD
Hi, I have COPD I believe it's moderate, I was diagnosed around 8 years ago after I had given up smoking, it was mild at that time. Since then I have tried numerous inhalers and have not found that any improve my breathing. Does anyone know if they are to help improve breathing, or are they to stop

Cleaning spacer
Hi as you see in pic when the flashlight is shining at. Is that residue from inhaler or suds from cleaning the spacer and them drying into the tube after leaving it to air dry or was that already there before I used it. How do I remove it.

Positive ANA speckled test - MCAS
I was diagnosed with Mast Cell Activation Syndrome earlier this year but the treatment hasn’t helped much. I have weekly bladder instillations and have been on antibiotics since Feb. I had a cystoscopy which showed biofilm in the bladder. I also have gastro issues and sensitivity to food - MCAS diet

O2 saturation and heart rate
May I ask if anyone takes measurements of O2 saturation during asthma attacks? Do you see numbers drop significantly during attacks? I know my asthma is bad when I cannot talk in sentences and must lie down to let it pass. While lying down, the heart rate is at 130 and stays until rescue inhaler kicks
