Missing inhaler
I saw a practice nurse yesterday for my asthma and diabetes checks. She's referring me to the diabetes education course.She also said that she would find out why I've only got 1 inhaler, which is my blue reliever inhaler. She said that she going to ask if I can have a steroid inhaler, but I don't know

methadone and shortness of breath
Hi all, Apologize in advance for length of this post. I've had RLS for since my early 40s and spent about 14 years on DA drugs. A not unusual story with augmentation and switching over to pregabalin about 3 years ago- but the pregabalin not being entirely effective for symptoms. At that time I was

Respiratory Consultant wants me to come off asthma meds!
The CT scan 7 years ago showed thickening of airways, consistent with asthma - when we have reduced my
inhalers
, my symptoms worsen, chest tightness, increased coughing, breathlessness and wheezing - I can’t understand where he’s coming from!

Is my FOSTAIR NEXThaler working correctly?
I have just taken receipt of my first FOSTAIR NEXThaler, and I’m concerned that I’m either not doing something correctly, or the inhaler is faulty? (OR it may be absolutely fine! 😃). When I breathe in deeply, I get the click and also a ‘spattering’ of tiny hard balls sprayed around my mouth, that I

Spirometry results good
Doctors have given me highest dose antihistamines, upped
inhalers
over the years, given steroids and nothing has helped. The Spirometry results were as follows: FEV1 - 3.43 - 99% FVC - 4.11 - 99% RATIO - 83% PEAK FLOW -9.31 - 129% From these results being good? I think?

clenil modulate
Been asthmatic since 20years at least but hardly used my
inhalers
but lately I need to. At my asthma review I mention this about palpations so after a discussion tried flixotide 125 this was ok but developed bad pain in head not a headache as such so stopped it.

Steroid card Question
My combination inhaler is fostair 200/6 2 puffs twice a day. I carry a steroid card because I take this inhaler. However when I asked for another steroid card to put with my ventolin from the pharmacy yesterday, the pharmacist told me I don't need one. I am confused as I was told by asthma UK

Recently diagnosed with COPD
Just recently diagnosed with COPD after being treated for Asthma, diagnosed just before the pandemic. The diagnosis was as a result of spirometry test. I have not seen a specialist. I am on a daily inhaler. Reduced my chocolate and dairy intake. Looking forward to receiving advice and sharing experiences

Seeking help
Increased
inhalers
as per plan, and using spacer for salbutamol but want some advice on what to do over the bank holiday weekend. Been a couple of times I thought about calling for help as Salbutamol only working for short periods. Really want to avoid ED if possible.

Flying with asthma
Hi all -- Has anyone here done research on flying with asthma? My understanding is that planes are pressurized to about 2 km altitude -- is that correct? Another potential issue is the air humidity -- does anyone know if the air is humidified, or is it only heated? If the air is only heated, the humidity

prostrate cancer
lupron. seems this drug kills testosterone and is supposed to starve cancer cells.. while radiation kills the cancer.. I was reading. Outsmart your cancer by Tanya Pierce.. The medical argument is that testosterone is the evil thing here but really is a lame argument.. As Dr White has said if this

Managing occasional breathlessness
I got rather breathless on my walk today as it was unexpectedly cold. It happens. Recently I was changed from Ventolin to Salamol. I am fine with that in principle, but I have had mixed results when using it. With Ventolin I know it starts to kick in after 10-15 minutes, but the first time I used Salamol

Mast Cell NHS Consultants?
I have been on montelukast for about six months as I was having bad reactions to most of the
inhalers
I was trying, and whilst it has helped somewhat with the asthma and reduced the reactions I have to my cat (usually my eyes swell up and itch until I can hardly see!)

Parkwalk
Hey Everyone I've just completed my first parkwalk, I missed running and did want to run it (I might have jogged a tiny bit) and my time was 51:28 which ironically was my first Parkrun time back in the summer, way before we even knew I had any heart issues. I had my GTN spray, Asthma inhaler and am

Bevispi Aeroshere Inhaler
Hi folks I posted yesterday (I think :) does anyone use this inhaler? and how do you find using it ? I have been put on it instead of seretide but find it is making me a bit light headed for a couple of hours afterwards, Think the mucous production is reducing a little. Would appreciate a reply if you
