IMPROVEMENT!
After nearly two years of waiting, I finally got to see a consultant! He gave me various tests and blood tests and came to the conclusion that it's not my bronchiectasis that's the problem, it's my asthma. I'm now taking a Seretide 250 inhaler and feeling a whole lot better. Although still not brilliant

New inhaler
After my previous post regarding possible chest infection and chest pains, I have seen the asthma nurse. There's apparently no sign of infection, so she thinks the pain is down to the asthma flare up. I'm being trialled on Symbicort MART rather than the fluticasone and salbutamol I'm currently using.

Relvar Ellipta side effects
So, I was taken off of Seretide (using for years without issue). Finished my last inhaler 4 days ago, and am now on Relvar Ellipta. Been on it for 4 days and experiencing a sinus headache for 2 days. No hoarseness and no other issues. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

luforbec
I have recently been put on Luforbec after using Fostair without any problems…I have experienced headaches, some dizziness and a dry thick throat feeling and basically not feeling well!…The only difference I can see in the ingredients/make up is ‘Maleic acid is used in Luforbec instead of Hydrochloric

Lingering dry cough
My 5 year old has asthma and is on preventative
inhalers
. He's recently had a flare, triggered by a virus. The cough got worse and has eased, however, it is lingering, we are on week 2 now. When he runs, dances etc he coughs and if he moves from inside to outside. Any reason why?

GPs treating patients differently ?

Inhaler disposal, please think of the environment.
I was at a meeting today and mentioned was the disposal of used
inhalers
. We were encouraged to take our used
inhalers
to the pharmacy for appropriate disposal, where the
inhalers
are subjected to proper disposal avoiding cross contamination and avoidance of plastic emissions.

max inhaler dose?
Hi everyone. I saw the hospital respiratory team about a month ago, who said that it is ok to take 5 puffs rather than the suggested max 4 puffs Fostair 200/6, as a kind of last resort before prednisolone. I’ve taken a lot of steroids this year and am trying to reduce the number of courses. However,

Emphysema
Hi I'm really confused. 2011 told I had COPD during a telephone call from from a GP receptionist. Had spirometer test then told I didn't have COPD. A similar thing happened the following year. Put it out of my head and got on with life. During the 1st lock down I had a telephone consultation with

Re ventolin
Hi Ollie 1976I can't really help as I can't use ventolin as I get horrendous palpitations from it. I have an inhaler called symbicort, it is a dry powder inhaler & is a combined preventer and emergency treatment like ventolin. Sorry I can't help cheers Irene.

Something else to cope with
My husband went to his doctors today suffering from sinus problems. I had seen mention of some bronchiectasis sufferers having this problem. Our practice nurse eliminated other causes following two recent courses of antibiotics for a chest infection. It now transpires that 62%+ of bronchiectasis

RSV and recovery
Hi everyone, I was only diagnosed with asthma 2 years ago after years of brutal chest infections. It has always been relatively well controlled with flare ups only when I have a chest infection, which were always resolved with my blue inhaler. Last Monday I started having asthma attack symptoms so

Breztri + reliever
I've been using Breztri twice a day- morning and bedtime. It's the in between time when I have some difficulty. Does anybody use a reliever inhaler in between ?
