Hi I need some advice they've changed my steriod inhaler nearly two weeks ago from the brown one to fostair nexthaler as I'm still struggling with my breathing and had two asthma flare ups due to blood pressure pills. I was wondering when should I see improvement in my chest? How long does it take? Just

Sob symptoms after 5days of prednisolone and currently stepping down
Hi hope all is well with you all. During an asthma flare up which started 12 days ago I was given 5 days prednisolone 40mg daily and another inhaler (Atrovent and then replaced by Spiriva a week later). I normally need a 2 courses of steroids and step down to sort out the problem, but as I’ve had too

Questions about Spiriva and referral
Hi, I’ve just taken my first dose of Spiriva and am always a bit edgy when taking new things 😅. I realised after taking it, that the instructions didn’t say anything about shaking it before use, is that because it’s a different kind of inhaler to Fostair which is my other inhaler? Also it didn’t

Recording PF with inhalers?
Hi All, I've been recording my PF as was advised and to note if its increased after use my inhaler, before I did this with my blue inhaler ventolin, but now I have an ICS - Easyhaler budesonide, do I use this and record PF instead of my blue inhaler now or?

Significant reduction in Ventolin inhaler use after Astra Zenica Covid vaccination.
I had my first Astra Zenica covid vaccination about a month ago so after a lifetime of Ventolin and/or Salbutamol inhaler use, I do not see how it can be a coincidence that my reliance on the aforementioned inhalers has gone from several times a day to maybe once a week or less. I still take my preventer

Weaning off inhalers
Hi there, I was diagnosed with asthma last year and had lung function tests recently. I got a letter from the consultant saying that I don’t have asthma and to wean off the inhalers. I appreciate that I shouldn’t ask for medical advice here but I haven’t a clue how to do this. I’m currently on flutiform

COPD
Hello everyone I hope you’re all doing ok. I was on here a few years ago because I was so sure I had COPD I had something wrong with my chest. However after several test and trips to the doctor it turned out I had a really bad lung infection which eventually cleared up. Fast forward 4 years I have recently

36 year old with Asthma/COPD
Was diagnosed with Asthma/COPD Overlap (ACOS) in 2019. I am only 36 and it took over 3 years to get a diagnosis, cause the consultants couldn't believe, at my age I had COPD. I am using a Trimbow inhaler (3 therapy inhaler LAMA/LABA/Steroid). I also have rescue inhaler. Only 3 years of having ACOS

I feel lost
Hello, I am new to this forum but I really needed to talk to someone. So, I have stage 4 emphysema. My drs haven't told me anything about the condition. I have either learnt about it from living with it or looked up on the Internet. I have had a test on a machine and that's when the nurse said that I

Latest of vaccination saga..
Asthma nurse rang yesterday querying if I should of been called in group 6, rather than group 9 which I'm currently in. Apparently the query has been sent to the GP (not my request, was hers). Apparently some concerns around my fostair inhaler. Anyways I guess continue to wait and see. On a good note

Asthma Sore Throat
Hi, was just wondering if anyone has ever experienced a Sore Throat with Fostair Inhaler. Have been using it for Years with a Spacer and a couple of Weeks ago stopped using the Spacer as it needed a clean, since then have had a bit of an on and off sore throat. It’s not like a normal sore throat though
