Really Struggling with Fostair
Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with asthma last spring after contracting Covid. It started relatively mild, I was prescribed a Ventolin blue reliever and a brown, steroid inhaler (Soprobec) which I took every day with a spacer. My symptoms seemed very manageable and I only had a minor flare up when I had

Advice on asthma as I have run out of options !
I recently visited someone with a cat for about an hour and ended up having a big asthma flare up. I went to hospital twice for nebs and one of these I required magnesium. I didn't have a big wheeze but was told they thought that was likely as I couldn't get enough air entry. 1 week later and I'm still

Philips Innospire Go Portable Nebuliser
Philips Innospire Go Portable Nebuliser Good morning everyone, Can I ask if anyone currently uses this small portable nebuliser? I am thinking of purchasing one for when I am out on the go with my wife. I understand its quite costly and there are many cheaper alternatives but historically I have always

O2 saturation and heart rate
May I ask if anyone takes measurements of O2 saturation during asthma attacks? Do you see numbers drop significantly during attacks? I know my asthma is bad when I cannot talk in sentences and must lie down to let it pass. While lying down, the heart rate is at 130 and stays until rescue inhaler kicks

Follow up
So, just a follow up from my post 3 days ago. I continued to struggle so yesterday I went to A&E. I was very reluctant, as I've never done this before. I shouldn't have worried, as I received amazing care. I was seen immediately, with no waiting at all. I had several meds, including nebs and hydrocortisone

Not sure what to do
Hi. This is a first time post. I've struggled to keep my asthma under control for 5 months, since my vaccine. I had a bad flare up 2 weeks ago. My doctor prescribed Prednisone 40mg for 5 days plus antibiotics. This didn't seem to help, and I returned to the surgery on Tuesday. Doctor said my chest is

Lung Function Tests and Nebuliser
I'm used to Lung function tests, I've had a fair few, I know when to stop my inhalers, no hard exercise (not done that for years). However, nowhere in the paperwork says if I should use my nebuliser, as usual, on the test day or not. I've only had the nebuliser since last September, I didn't think to

A, Give away, nebulizer
I wish to GIVE AWAY a Omron
Nebulizer
NE-C28P to anyone that it will help. All you would need is a new pipe and mask (due to COVID), I will also take care of the postage, so it really is a give away.

Portable nebulisers
I am wondering if anyone could recommend a rechargeable portable nebuliser as I am currently unable to venture outside due to only having a mains nebuliser. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Why are my SATS at 98 when my chest feels heavy and coughing
Hi all I'm currently in hospital (planned admission for steroid weaning) and my obs are usually 94-95% SATS. I have got tachycardia which they are also looking in to. I'm down to 10mg currently, looking to drop to 5mg tomorrow. I had an attack after my shower on Monday just gone and my SATS were 98%

Nebuliser advice welcomed
My husband was treated with a nebuliser on several occasions during a recent hospital stay, but when checking out buying one for home use I see conflicting opinions on whether or not they're suitable for COPD ... Any thoughts/recommendations appreciated before we commit...

Another little bump.
It’s been a while since I last posted. I am once again in hospital, just another blip but the plan is already in place to hopefully resolve it. After a year on Benrazilumab, I am on the few percent of people who build up resistance to it and now it have stopped working. My eosinophils have shot back
