Chest infection/asthma flare-up lingering on
Hi, I'm new here, and struggling with a recent flare-up. I had asthma as a child/teenager, mainly triggered by cigarette smoke and colds, but seemed to 'grow out of it' after I left school. I've had very few issues as an adult and hadn't been on a preventer for years. But I started with a chest infection

PCD Management Advice
My children are on Hypertonic saline solution in
nebulizer
daily, physio, and azithromycin 3 times a week. However, they continue to get bad chest infections and most times it takes 2 or 3 weeks of Augmentin DUO to get them better again. And they always have a really bad runny nose and wet cough.

Fixed Asthma
Has anyone on here been diagnosed with this, went to hospital to take part in research trial but when they did a reversibility test there was only 11% difference between pre nebuliser with oxygen and after, cannot seem to find anything readable on google just clinical spiel, they are writing to my docs

two weeks post esophagectomy
I'm doing okay but still having some trouble with breathing (was sent home with a
nebulizer
). No pain, per se. I'm on a feeding tube at night and trying to eat soft foods several times during the day. I don't have much of an appetite.

Introducing myself to the COPD community as a 'Newbie'
Hi everyone, My husband (65-year old, normal weight, normally physically fit and strong) was diagnosed with COPD recently following a lung function test. He then experienced his first exacerbation which we both found incredibly frightening so took ourselves of to St Helier A&E in the early hours of

Tell Me If It's Normal...
Do you sometimes find it difficult to decide whatever is ailing you at the time is just another aspect or symptom of COPD or that it might be something entirely unrelated? I have mornings when the simple act of getting up and dressed is virtually beyond me...and evenings when I want to sleep so much

Report came through..
Hi Everybody!! Hope you are enjoying the weekend. The Report was so complex that the GP said he'd have to research the answers :))) So I wrote an email to the respiratory clinic because I noticed my asthma has gone up to severe. That is because of the dyspnea, shortness of breath. It should improve

Do I have lupus?
Had to go on a
nebulizer
as couldn’t breathe. On second course of antibiotics but still wheezing constantly with pain in my chest. A course of prednisolone gave short term relief but fever went back up to 40 degrees once I’d finished the course.

Does anyone else have steroid induced diabetes?
Hi guys, I haven't been on in a long time, but I used to come around her a lot for the great support. About two years ago in Summer I developed necrotizing pnemonia, and was in the hospital 2-3 times. It took about 4-6 months for me to recover. Anyways, in the middle of this I was diagnosed with severe

3 year old undiagnosed
Hi everyone, I am new here and was just looking for a little bit of advice for my son. Two weeks ago he woke up with a runny/blocked nose and a cough. 24 hours later he was admitted to hospital with what they are calling a wheezing episode as he is not diagnosed with asthma although he has been on

Portable Nebuliser
Hi, new on here! Came across the site when looking at nebuliser reviews as I'm considering buying my own portable one to supplement the larger NHS one I'll leave at home. I found lots of recommendations on here for the Omron microair U22 but they were all from a few years ago. Is it still the best
