Combination inhalers and A fib
Hi Everyone,Recently went to a new pulmonologist. Since I was diagnosed with asthma 2 years ago I have been using Flovent HFA 220. No issues, just sometimes feel like I need a little to open up things. So Dr. recommended Breo . I tried Breo but made me jittery and at times it caused leg cramps. So the

Home Nebs 🫁 - they may help improve QoL in severe asthmatics, but are they safe?! Everything you need to know!
Hi everyone. Another infomercial for you all! Hopefully this will be relatively short (but you know me... they never are 😅), and it’ll definitely shorten my next post (add-ons from consultants)! So here we go... Home nebs are almost always frowned upon by consultants (and definitely disapproved of by

Breo versus Flovent
Hi everyone , recently went to a new pulmonologist . In June I got Covid but I was one of the lucky ones that didn’t have to go to hospital . Since then sometimes I get SOB so they changed my Flovent to Breo . When changing inhalers are you more susceptical to getting an asthma attack or sick ? Also

Flovent side effects
Has anyone else experienced chest tightness after taking Flovent ? I feel like my lungs are irritated after taking it and since stopping my peak flow has improved. I also felt like it was making me anxious. Thanks

Is it anxiety or asthma
I take Relvar 188 but I still need to take Atrovent sometimes 2 puffs twice a day. Is this normal. I am 66 years of age. I just feel my breathlessness is getting worse but yet my consultant and GP tell me my chest is clear. I suffer from anxiety so could this be the cause of my breathlessness. I also

Flovent horrible side effects
Hello everybody, I apologize if this has been discussed before, but i've been on a three month course of inhaled Fluticasone (125 mcg twice daily) and ever since I started using this medication, i've felt fatigue, dizziness and general malaise almost every day. Has anyone here experienced this? My doctors

Asthma
I had a very bad cold recently and it left me with with rather a lot of chest phlehm. Funnily enough my asthma did not get any worse. However to expel the phlegm I took two nebulisers a day of Ipramol and I find that my asthma has improved immensely. I was taking the Relvar every day(which I still do

Think this is gonna be a long one... (cause it has been so far... 😅😴)
First up, I am an idiot 😅🙈. Monday, I decided that it was a good idea to sprint (whilst pulling a suitcase) the length of 8 train carriages and up/over/down a bridge (missed the train I was chasing by about 10 secs anyway) in the cold/damp weather... this situation was not my fault I hasten to add

Nebuliser
Hi, sorry to here your unwell, it's such a horrible condition! What dose of nebuliser are you on , you can have 5mg salbutamol & 500 micrograms atrovent Also how much prednisolone? But if you are not responding to the medication, you perhaps need to go to hospital , before you get any worse. Hope things

Throat problems
First let me clarify that I am faithful to rinse and gargle after all treatments. I started to have throat problems after I had been taking the Flovent inhaler for a while. I'm not sure I can describe it very well, but it feels almost like there's a spot that's gravelly and sometimes just the action

It’s been a loooong night 😴😴
It all started Sunday when I woke with a cold which my gut told me was going to hit my chest. But it’s 10am and I’m just snotty and sinusy and a mild asthma issue. Treat it and reassure my mum (who’d I’d been visiting) I’m not bad enough for hosp. Make my 12 o’clock train and feel dodgy enough I need

Normal flora
Hi, glad to join. I have asthma and bronchiectasis following a chemical accident with ammonia 11 years ago. Whenever I have a “chest infection” my doctor sends off a sputum sample (before antibiotics started) but it always comes back as normal flora. My respiratory consultant says this is not a chest

Side effects
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced the same and looking for some advice. Last week I’d had three attacks in the space of a week that resulted in A&E treatment with salbutamol, atrovent, hydrocortisone, magnesium and pred tablets. I’ve had an attack free week and have finished the pred now

Post attack advice please
Hi all So Tuesday i ended up going to a+e on blues and twos from my GP surgey. This is the first time it's happened. I know I grumbled about the asthma care I've received from my surgery but to be fair to them, they were brilliant. I had been struggling for a few days and using my ventolin A LOT.

Nebuliser
Hi all. My asthma has been really bad for 5 weeks now. Hospital admission for a week. Back on high dose steroids after a 2 day break. I saw my gp yesterday and she said to increase nebulisers. I was having 5ml salbutamol every 4 hours including through night. And 3 atrovent daily. Plus symbicort
