Still don’t really know if I have asthma or not
Hi, I know I’ve posted similar to this before but I suppose it’s because I don’t know where I stand in terms of breathing/ asthma status I do also have anxiety which I’ve received help for but I still feel on edge with the whole I might have asthma thing. I have had tests which haven’t revealed anything

Do exacerbations follow exacerbations?
Hi all, You may have seen my other thread. I am a man in my early forties and had a rude awakening to asthma with an almost two week hospital stay about 1.5 months ago with lots of mucus in lungs and for one week I was on oxygen. Last week I got a cold which quickly went to my chest leaving me clogged

Long Covid and Breathlessness
He gave me the brown and blue
inhalers
to try which made a significant difference. Consultant suspects breathlessness may be related to Covid. Awaiting an appointment with a respiratory specialist. Any thoughts from you good people

Luforbec.
Having read a few posts about issues with Luforbec, I would like to add that I've just gone back on Fostair after being so fed up with Luforbec that I even offered to pay for Fostair. The biggest issue has been the difficulty with the device giving me one dose with each press. I had to ditch one inhaler

Asthma during respiratory infections
Hi, I've been asthmatic since I was 2 years old and am now considerably older than that. Despite 45 years of experience I really don't have a good understanding of what to expect from asthma management. I use a low dose Flixotide preventer inhaler every day and salbutamol when required. Day to day you

Week4 Run3
Completed run 3 yesterday, really enjoyed the run and tried running the first two segments slower so that I could pick up the pace on the last two run segments, I did achieve that, but it made very little difference to my overall time, I think my asthma is improving, but I have been a bit more vigilant

it feels like I'll never get better
Hi! I've had constant air hunger every day since June. During my early teens, I was diagnosed with asthma caused by cats. I got prescribed Ventolin which I used when in contact with cats, it helped. I never had any other issues with asthma. As I was young, the allergy tests only confirmed me being

Hi, I'm new here and looking forward to getting to know others who are in the "same boat" as it were. I was only diagnosed in June and am struggling to come to terms with it, also to get the meds right. I have a review on Friday as it seems the inhaler I was given may not be right for me. It's all

childhood asthma
hi all, I had childhood asthma which completely left as I was 12. However it came back last year when I got food poisoning. I constantly feel like air hunger, wheezing and chest tightness. It makes me so anxious I feel like I could have lung cancer which makes no sense I have a blue inhaler and

Stopping Fostair
Im absolutely fed up with the side effects I get with Fostair Nexthaler and most other
inhalers
and as my GP wont change it im stopping it. I only take 1 puff of 200/6 in the evening so if I need to taper it how can i do so. Im thinking of perhaps taking it every other day

Inhaler
Hi all, I haven't been on for awhile however, I do read all of your posts. My GP has put me on the Respimat Inhaler. I was wondering if any of you have used this and if so, have you had any relief from a tight chest and dry cough.

Constant oral thrush on Fostair
GP suggested different
inhalers
(dry powder) but both contained lactose & I am allergic to milk. I’m at a loss what to do to stop it continually happening. Can anyone suggest anything please that might help?

EasyHaler Salbutamol Sulfate 100mg
As anyone else had any reaction (ie increase in cough) to the above inhaler? I was switched to this in June (2023) & haven't stopped coughing! Also, I was put on Bisoprolol in Feb after an x-ray showed Arrhythmia. The x-ray result I had 2 wks ago showed as Normal! Last month I was given Omeprazole

oxygen usage
I had an assessment with an oxygen lady today. she has told me I should only use the ambulatory oxygen when I go out. I use the concentrater over night at 2. I asked her what I should use during the day when I’m home. According to her I should only use the blue inhaler when I get out of breath and

Inhaler adherence/use your spacer
I am possibly going to take part in a study for inhaler adherence. When speaking to the Dr running the study, she told me that many people do not take their inhaler correctly, and it makes such a difference to your condition. Using a spacer can make a difference of 30% more of your medication getting
