First cyclophosphamide pulse

Loss of voice
Does anyone else suffer from loss of voice due to their inhalers? I find I can go round in circles inhalers cause the loss of voice and then I need more inhalers to solve the problem. Have Nystan liquid but its not working! And guess what - I'm a Reception Class Teacher!

childrens medication
I was just wondering if any of your children are on triamcinolone and methotrexate ? My daughter is on seretide, salbutamol, ceterizine, montelukast, uniphyllin and prednisolone at the moment. We were told yesterday she has been refused xolair (although she meets all the critiria) but the hospital is

non eosinophilic inflamation
Can anyone help me understand how my son is still having asthma probs with sore/tight chest yet less than 1% eoosinophils and eNO of <20? I felt a bit foolish at our last o/p appointment as my son had lung function of 37%, was obviously finding it quite hard to breathe and was having probs putting sentances

Throat problems
Having trouble with oral thrush yet again. Been on flucanazole 100mg a day for 10 weeks and also had difflam mouth rinse, nystan, and dakatarin oral gel and I still can't get rid of it.

Oral thrush
Hi As you know, I have had a chest infection and two lots of antibiotics. After the first one, I developed oral thrush, so had nystatin prescribed. After the second one I had both oral and vaginal thrush, so had a one off capsule prescribed about a week ago. Now the oral thrush is back. I have cleaned

Triamcinolone/kenalog
Hi all this may sound daft but I have no idea what the relationship is between kenalog and pred. I was asked by a mum at school whose son also has difficult Asthma what the equivilent would be if taking daily Pred. I looked a bit silly answering with 'I really have no idea!' So wondered if any of

IV Methylprednisolone
Does anyone have any experience of Methylpred. Jay has been having 4 weekly IV infusions instead of Triamcinolone injections. I know the Triamcinolone is a depot injection and lasts for around 4 weeks but am not sure how IV Methylpred works. He is having it over 1/2 and hour. Doesn't help when the

How much Pred do you take?
I have noticed over the years that people take different amounts of Pred for exacerbations and wondered what the maximum effective dose would be. My son who is 14 has never taken more than 40mg, whether the Gp has prescribed it because he is starting to dip or when he's been in hospital needing IV's

Home Nebulisers
Hello All, At the moment I am unwell with Asthma due to a chest infection,I have been prescribed Amoxicillin, Prednisilone and Nystatin. My question is, I have read recently that home nebulising is no better than using your existing reliever, and I was wondering if it is worth me continuing with my nebulising

He then had 3 doses of 80mg Triamcinolone injections from Sep to Dec with three 5 day courses of 40mg pred as well. Since he stoppped the injections he has had a further

oral thrush for a year and a half
Hello all I am having a rotten time of it with oral thrush. I have had it for about 18 months, and have had course after course of nystatin, amphotericin, and fluconazole. It just won't go away, no matter what. I have always used a spacer when I take my steroid inhaler, always swill my mouth with water

Just a bit fed up and in need of a moan...
Having huge probs with my son and his asthma at the moment. He is currently on his 4th week of being low. We have had numerous attendances to the ward for nebs and are having close follow ups with the Brompton. His appointment last week was a little disheartening as he had a fev1 of 34% and only had
