8 puffs of Fostair 200/6 a day - really?
I’m in the sixth week of oral prednisolone for asthma - tapering down 5mg a week from 40mg starting dose. Annoyingly, when I got down to 20mg, my peak flow started to drop so the doctor told me to go back up to 25mg and also to double the Fostair to 8 puffs a day. Is that a normal dose - I thought 4

Why is my breathing suddenly so bad?
I have had asthma for years but although I admit I generally haven't taken my preventer regularly I have felt very comfortable. Suddenly my symptoms have become severe. No cough, just tight and unable to breathe easily. When it first started it was terrifying as my chest, diaphragm and ribs felt exhausted

Has anyone tried or researched
low
dose
naltrexone
for pain symptoms? From what I’ve read is it works like opioids. I’ve tried opioids once and didn’t seem to help. Just wondered if it may work a little different also. Shows that it helps with MS and neuropathy so possible.

Meal replacement shakes and soups
My GP has referred me to the Rewind programme which aims to help diabetes type 2 patients lose weight and possibly achieve remission. One mode of this programme consists of meal replacement shakes and soups, which to my mind does not seem appropriate for a liver patient (I have been diagnosed with likely

Sore upper chest
Hi. Wondering if anyone else has had anything similar. My upper chest feels really sore and has for about two weeks. I finished steroids last week as my pf dropped to 500 (usually 650). I have moved house and lots of dust as I’m am waiting for my flooring to be laid. My peak flow is now about 550.

Starship - Nothing's Gonna Stop Us NowSongwriters: Diane Warren / Albert Hammond
Well overall it has been a good week, although it has been “b****y” freezing as my mother would say. I often wondered why my mother would swear every other word but say as children we were not allowed to. Do not get me wrong she never used very foul language, just the “b” words. I soon found I had

Food allergy testing
Hi all Cab you help me out please? My brother is absolutely convinced that something I'm eating, if not the cause of the PMR, is certainly making it worse. I'm happy he is interested but I'm slightly less convinced than him. I barely drink alcohol as that causes more pain. I eat in a low carb way as

Steroid Inhalers Aid Covid Recovery
An article in The Guardian today has an explanation of why asthma sufferers were not at so much at risk of hospitalisation with Covid as we were told at the beginning of the pandemic, Our steroid inhalers protected us from the worst of it! I must say I felt that, and the week’s course of steroid tablets

Very little variation in peak flow during flare-ups - why, and anyone else?
Hi, I have had asthma for 15+ years, mod-severe for 1.5 years. In the last 7months have had 3 rescue courses of pred and been changed from Fostair 200/6 2puffs twice a day to Atectura 125/260 1puff once daily by my consultant (which hasn’t helped). What seems strange to me is that I never have great

Asthma RA thank you
Just a quick update to say thanks for those that gave me so many tips and things to do and sort Thursday. Getting a peak flow tube has already made me realise how poor my asthma is right now but also my understanding of asthma and how to control it is too weak. Been thinking it was RA issues as well
