Call asthma doctor? She doesn’t help much. Long term prednisone.
It seems like the fall often bothers my asthma. I was hospitalized in fall 2019 for 6 days for severe asthma exacerbation. Then COVID started. I’ve been on oral prednisone since fall 2019. I’m on daily 25 mg. My doctor is trying to lower the pred. She says it’s not doing anything now my body is just

Low or very low protein diets. If you've no uremia, will you obtain any benefit?
I had uremia at CKD3a/b (uremia =higher levels of urea than there ought to be present in your blood). I was at 13.5 when the normal range is 2.5 to 7.8 (thankfully, I'm now at 6.4 due to diet). Because I had uremia at CKD 3a/b, I assumed everyone else would have some sort of uremia at CKD 3a/b. When

Daily Diary for Wednesday 1st September 2021
Happy 1st September everyone! I know not everyone likes the end of summer, so I thought I'd find a reminder of how beautiful autumn can be. I love it! What about everyone else? What do you think about the changing season? I'm also looking forward to seeing how all your menu plans start to change as different

Will the weight ever drop?
Hi everyone, I'm looking for some help here. Been through a ton of the older posts already. I'm 36 and weight 186 lbs currently. My 'heavy' maintain weight it usually between 159-160lbs and my good weight is anywhere around 140 lbs. I've been yo-yo dieting my whole life which understandably has shot

A few medical issues since starting DuoResp Spiromax 160/4.5 Budesonide/formoterol three weeks ago
Hello there, I still have not had a diagnosis for my bronchiectasis like symptoms; my chest x-rays showed scarring in march, but are now all clear now. Since my last serious chest infection earlier this year I have been perfectly healthy, active, cough and asthma free, only taking Fostair 100/6 four

Will taking LDN (low dose naltrexone) interfere with my immune testing results
I have recently had 2 failed transfers - one fresh & one frozen (both implantation failure) I have now moved clinic & will be to having some immune testing done (NK cells, ANA, APA & Antithyroid). I am currently taking LDN for my hashimoto & was wondering if I should stop before having the tests done

Can anyone recommend....
some kind of in-run fuelling that isn't based on sugar, or carbohydrates? I know there are some low-carb runners here, what do you do? I know we are meant to be able to run on fresh air when we're fat adapted but I've not reached that holy grail...

Symptomatic but little change in peak flow

Help! Trepidation setting in…
Having not run since I was 11 years old (I remember that day well….) I have decided that I need to get off of my bottom and take my health more seriously. Having largely ignored insulin dependent diabetes since my diagnosis, due to the fact that I am invincible, having slowly and blatantly increased

Reconsideration of peak flow as asthma deterioration measurement
I think doctor should reconsider the peak flow device as main effective method for asthma diagnosis, I think such device is only helpful in patients with non inflammatory asthma like COPD or lung fibrosis, I remember when I was 15 I had lost consciousness due to severe asthma flare up, and I remember

Treatments for Hashimotos antibodies
I’ve heard of people being prescribed
low
dose
naltrexone
for high antibodies, and in some cases steroids. I’m on waiting list to see endocrinologist on nhs, how likely would they be to prescribe one of these if I asked?

Coughing Fits
Hello I'm in a bit of unchartered territory at the moment so would really appreciate some advice from fellow sufferers who may have more experience dealing with it. I was diagnosed with asthma as a baby and had it throughout childhood. When I reached my teens it vastly improved to the point I didn't

How to Balance Low Sodium and Electrolyte Replacement During Exercise?
There are two nutrition segments who do not communicate much: low sodium diets and electrolyte replacement. I have seen a number of articles about "low sodium backpacking" and "low sodium backpacking meals." There are also many, many articles (likely driven by a lucrative market) on electrolyte replacement

"normal" FEV1 and PF, and Small Airway Inflammation
My peak flow and my FEV1 are higher than the predicted, even when I get sick (for me <700 on the PF bad news, so is 110% on the FEV1). I found a few research papers on pubmed suggesting that PF and FEV1 are only sensitive to the medium to large airway function, and not sensitive to the small airway
