Inhaler change from Seretide to Fostair Next
Just wondering how long it takes to work when you change
inhalers
? Also, already had leg cramp last night. Doesn't bode well!

I first joined this forum some 10 years ago when my husband became very ill with COPD plus various cardiac issues. He sadly passed away almost 6 years ago so my contact with the forum stopped. My own health was reasonable - just high BP - but was constantly stressed because of trying to help my husband

Admitted - sigh
Got admitted again, despite being on Xolair and maintenance Prednisolone. Feel slightly disheartened? I'm hoping to leave tomorrow, but I'm struggling tonight, just using my inhaler. Hope everyone's New Year is going well.

Asthma or not?
Hi. I haven’t used a reliever or preventer asthma pump since august as I’ve been fine symptom free.. I went to the gym the other day and started feeling short of Breath easily and have done for a few days now.. I still haven’t used any inhaler as I’m not sure i have asthma due to my peak flow being 800

Fostair shortages
Hi all, it's Naomi, asthma nurse at AUK People have been telling us that they're struggling to get hold of their Fostair inhaler. I've been in touch with Chiesi, the manufacturers of Fostair, and there was a problem with logistics over Christmas and New Year and that messed the supply up - but normal

Prednisolone advice please
Also on two
inhalers
one a steroid. I’m worried about what to expect, I know compared to many this is low level but still worried. Any advice or info welcome.

Help with steroids
I have a bad chest infection and was started on antibiotics & steroids last night. Between the steroids & using inhaler I had the jitters & racing HR which kept me awake. Can I take the steroids this morning instead of tonight? Haven't had steroids for a few years but remember being told best to take

Ventolin and other Inhalers
(I am allergic to lots of things inculding a lot of the vegetable oils often used as emulsifiers and surfactants in
inhalers
). And now I hear that GPs are refusing to issue Ventolin to those of us on repeat prescriptions because the overuse of it can be "dangerous".

Taken off Inhalers
So after taking a very long history he tells me to stop all
inhalers
. That’s it and good luck. Nothing about the significant decrease in my numbers, nothing about my current symptoms. How I feel etc. All in all a little confused & puzzled about where to go from here.

Gasping for breath
I have new
inhalers
and some pills, but no medical person will believe me that
inhalers
have never helped me with a bad attack. I used to use DO DO tablets or chesteasy ( same thing) but they are not made now unless anyone knows better. or can advise me on substitutes.

Inhalers stopped until next year
I have been in a state of stress for many years due to them stopping
inhalers
for both me and my son randomly, and the stress exacerbates my asthma. I can't live through winter without an inhaler....

Now I got the new variant, omicron, and my lungs are in pain and I cant seem to breathe properly, even after using my inhaler and painkillers.

Hi I’d ask if there is a nurse who specifically deals with lung conditions. Also check there website it should tell you names of medical staff that is trained in lung conditions.Have you had your inhaler technique checked? Depending on which inhaler you use they should offer you a spacer.

Which Puppies work for mild asthma/allergy - medium/standard dog breeds that are hypoallergenic
We had a standard Poodle before and this worked. We are looking in the UK for a list of cross breeds with a poodle that might work with my asthma. (eyes itchy and asthma causing in-frequent use of ventolin inhaler etc). My asthma is under control without dogs/cats/hay/dust at the moment but don't want
