Asthma inhaler
My brown inhaler hasn’t been working very well for me, and the nurse in my practice prescribed a pink one called Fostair. It said you must read the pamphlet before using, so I have, and it says ‘do not use beta blockers with this medicine’. I’m on Atenolol 50 mg, and also to talk to your doctor if you

Son always coughing
Hi, my son is 16months and was given
inhalers
back in June for suspected asthma. He has always coughed and wheezed since he vacated the womb. Constantly coughs of a night which is better when using the brown inhaler, but doctors told me only to use it when i think he needs it.

Should I be on levothyroxine yet?
I'm new here. Hello! I'm a 61 year old woman- usually fit- good BMI and do strength training. No regular meds until recently. In spring 2018 I felt tired and rundown ( I have a stressful job and it was over 2 years since my last period so I wondered if this was just post menopause - not on HRT) The

Using an Inhaler with cardio issues
As a few will know I have had Cardio problems since 1997, fixed with quad CABG and later stents fitted. Had several issues with breathlessness and diagnosed with HF. All of these quite well managed these days. Earlier this year just before everything kicked off I had had more breathing issues and had

Making Sense of HF.
Yesterday I had a home visit from my G.P. It wasn't precooked but a district nurse came to do monthly blood test and decided the Dr needed to see me as my bp was 78/48. I haven't been well for a couple of months. Exhausted, sleeping solidly day and night, light headed, a bit confused in fact sort of

Finding the way ☀️
I’ve steadily got used to the cold air, and after a blip in October as the weather changed, I’ve now learned how to keep the asthma under control. Having come so far through JuJu’s magic plan, I had become a bit disappointed that I suddenly needed to do run/walk intervals, as I just couldn’t get my

Tightening Chest
Hi, I have an ongoing cough/phlegm problem which I hope to have investigated in the New Year. I returned to the UK 3 days ago and as is the norm when here I am coughing more, have a wheeze and feel a slight uncomfortable/tight feeling in my chest. I have increased my AirFluSal inhaler to 3 puffs twice

Are hot flushes a sign/cause?
I'm trying to work out whether my symptoms could in fact be anxiety. Before I start to struggle, I almost always get really hot and sweaty, this continues until my breathing has calmed. It's like a little heat siren that I need to rest and take my inhaler. I am only 32 so it's very unlikely that it's

Here we go!
Just had a call from a locum doctor from our surgery as I'd asked for a replacement inhaler. She started by saying that I was overdue a medication review (basically surgery only offers telephone diagnosis) so we could do it over the 'phone. Did I have a blood pressure reader and a peak flow meter? If

Asthma nurse, long term medication
Hi all hope you’re doing well. Been for my first appointment with the asthma nurse to check inhaler technique etc, she was very nice. The way she way talking was that she classed me as having a diagnosis of asthma and asked about symptoms/triggers. She read that the gp had suspected it a few weeks ago

Albuterol important question
Hi all, Ran out of my preventative inhaler because it's too expensive here in the USA and I haven't been able to get it. Anyway, I've been using my Albuterol nebulizer a couple times every day pretty much, as my asthma is obviously acting up since I don't have my medicine. Anyway, is it okay than I'm

Despite being on three different
inhalers
Bricanyl, Pulmicourt and Serevent, I needed regular nebulisers and had several admissions to hospital each year. After six months of being on Hydroxychloroquine the asthma just stopped??

Insurance question....
Is there anyone on this board from Canada? My health coverage from work has refused to cover my preventer inhaler because they said I should be using Ventolin more. They cover the cheaper drug (Ventolin) but refuse to cover Zenhale (Dulera), or Singulair. I am surprised they cover prednisone. I am frustrated
