Change from Spireva to Trimbow
Just spent a week in hospital with chest infection. Discharged with a change of medication- Spiriva to Trimbow and a big dose of Prednisolone, much more than ever before. So far the Trimow doesn't seem to help and I am relying a lot on the Salbultimol reliever, which normally I wouldn't need. I wonder

Weaning off Sirdupla 250?
Bearing in mind that it took two years to find a combination
inhalers
which would get it properly under control in the first place and when things go pearshaped it happens pretty quickly with me.

Partner diagnosed with emphysema
Hi all, My partner has just this month been diagnosed with emphysema. He's 64 and I'm 31, we've been together six and a half years, and I suppose I'm just looking for a bit of advice on how to cope with the diagnosis and tips on what I can do to help. He was hospitalised in January with pneumonia and

coughing post trelogy inhaler?
hey all! I’ve been in trelogy for about 8 months now. I consistently have trouble holding my breathe after I take it, because it gives me a really strong impulse to cough. Usually I can fight it off for the 10 or so seconds but I do cough after taking it for a couple seconds. Am I inhaling too hard

Salamol doesn’t work for me! Is anyone else finding it less effective than Ventolin?
Hello asthma buddies, Ok.. so while I’m all for saving the planet, I’ve been told my new blue inhaler, Salamol, is a CFC free equivalent to Ventolin. If I order a repeat prescription for Ventolin I automatically now get a Salamol. This happens at all phamrmacies I’ve tried. I have been told that eventually

I have tried quite a few different
inhalers
recently a few of them have serevent in them that doesn’t suit me it tightens my chest immediately. Just looking for one that I haven’t tried.

New Salmol inhaler tastes awful
Has anyone been prescribed a new blue inhaler to replace the Ventolin blue one? I've just been given Salmol and thankful my asthma is well controlled because it tastes like glue. Are there any other options that don't taste so bad?

Sudden rapid drops in SP02 that recover quickly

My 17 month old daughter is in hospital every two weeks with viral wheeze
I’ve just joined the forum and I would really appreciate so help and advice. We have been in hospital 7 times this year with our beautiful baby daughter. Every time she gets a cold it ends up causing her lungs / airways to construct and we have to rush her to hospital. She really struggles for 1-2 days

Asthma remission for 6 months
I was diagnosed with asthma as a child, 8-9 years of age. My asthma symptoms come and go, but I’ve went 6 months without any major symptoms. I wake up coughing every morning, shortness of breath and sometimes I throw up due to coughing so much but I put this all down to smoking. I’ve stopped smoking

Confusing advice from consultant
I had a terrible experience today. My son's asthma consultant became annoyed at me and my husband because we chose to homeschool our five year old, largely because of his asthma. He gets three to four days of constant coughing when it flares and he was like this at least twice a month. We think viruses

Side effects of coming off itraconazole?
She had to change her
inhalers
when she went on to the itraconazole tablets and so far has been OK asthma wise though we do know that she may have an exacerbation of her asthma and have to change again.
