Low sodium diet
Hi everyone!I am here, on this forum for my husband's CKD/proteinuria (all unexplained- kidney biopsy was "normal" as well as his genetic test). Anyway, his Nephrologist put him on low sodium November 30th. I went on it with him and haven't had a migraine since! So for those of you who are supporting

Incorrect Hospital Records
Hi, I’ve been having some problems with the respiratory team and requested a copy of my hospital records, which I’ve received. After going through them, there’s lots of information missing and details which are incorrect. I’m a severe asthmatic, and the consultant has now noted “no definitive diagnosis

Any advice?
Hi all, 👋 I was wondering whether some of you lovely people might be able to give me some advice. Apologies in advance for this super long message! 😅 Back in 2017 I had two really bad exacerbations with my asthma, involving lots of pred and antibiotics, which led to me moving from fostair to seretide

getting a diagnosis
my son had persistent dry cough as a child, no inhalers worked but he never saw a specialist. A course of oral steroids sorted him out for a good while. He is now 23 and a professional singer, classically trained but suffers with reflux, persistent cough, and gets every virus on his chest. Recently

So pleased
I was told I had NASH a year last October. As a result, I was sent for a Fibroscan and my kpa reading was 36.6. My liver image looked white with fat.I have type 2 diabetes, gall stones and a hiatus hernia. I was floored by the diagnosis and stressed so much. My anxiety level went through the roof. I

How would a rational person deal with this? What would be their thought process?
This has been going on a while now maybe I am too dumb to rationally reduce my anxiety. Basically I have had the condition Chronic rhinosinitis with polyps since I was 23. Twelve years later I have been under ent had ct scans which have shown some sinus thickening, they said it didn’t look too bad

Oxygen levels/peak flow
Hi everyone I had a flare up of asthma today, no idea what's caused it. Felt quite wheezy and tight-chested earlier. Managed to get an emergency appointment with a nurse I'd never seen before who didn't seem that bothered. Sure enough, my peak flow is normal (560) and my oxygen was 98%. No wheeziness

Asthma without infection
Brief history. Moved north to West Yorkshire in 1974 (aged 29). Started with beathing difficulties. Had allergy tests and a course of desensitisation injections, which worked, but whenever I caught a cold, it morphed into a sore throat and chest infection leading to gasping for breath. Major attack

GP's and medication
I'm beginning to think GP's have been instructed to stop offering treatment for various conditions! Recently I have been to my arthritis is impacting on things I can do, "sorry nothing for it , take paracetamol or ibuprofen" but you know I can't take ibuprofen! Then I go saying my peak flow is down

New to the forum Peak Flow questions
Hi and thank you for allowing me to join your forum. Q: So I've done a peak flow diary over 22 days before I speak to GP tomorrow. My average readings are between 250 and 290. Is this poor? I have a complex health history, many battles with health pros, lots of investigations and some firm diagnoses

Really positive respiratory review
I know I've moaned a lot on here about the difficulties I've had in getting the right care since diagnosis, but I had an annual respiratory review this week and it was really good - so thorough, and the nurse really listened to what I was saying and was working with me to keep the asthma well managed

Can Amitriptyline stop working?
Hi all. I’ve been on amitriptyline for just over 2 years now. Increased a number of times to take me to 90mg per nocte. It was a godsend initially and although I feel the effect on pain has lessened over time it has helped me a lot with falling and staying sleep up to recently. I am in the midst of a

Constant green phlegm since March 2023
Hello. I was diagnosed with asthma in 2019 after a nasty chest infection where the GP said my chest was very wheezy and suggested that she thought I had asthma. It was confirmed over the next 2 months by spirometry and peak flow with the asthma nurse. I was given Fostair 200/6 and used it until February

New adult onset asthma
Hi all, I'm a man in my early 40s of normal weight and never smoked. I've just come out of hospital with what is assumed to be a severe asthma attack. I spent 10 days in respiratory ward. My o2 got down to 89% and my peak flow down below 200. It took me a long time to turn round but now back at home
