Regular Mucus of a Morning
Hi all, First post here. I'm 22 and the last few years I have experienced regular wheezing and always seem to pick up a chest infection. Sometimes it feels infected and sore, whereas sometimes its just white mucus that doesn't seem infected. Just a nuisance but once coughed up I'm fine for the day.

Sport proper warmup
Dear all, about two weeks ago I had my frst ever asthma attack. I'm a 40 year old woman who never had great lungs (somewhat smallish, peak flow always some 50-90 below normal depending on calc method), but also never had serious problems either. Call me thick, but I'd love to work out again as soon

Chest tightness and shortness of breath with normal MRI
Sorry, this is a long post, but I'd be really grateful if anyone on here could help. I started having chest tightness and shortness of breath about four months ago, which started off as being intermittent and gradually got to the stage where it was constant. Around the same time, there was about a 1

10 Months Quit :-)
Hey non smokers, I'm doing my monthly check in. 10 months now without a fag and definitely don't feel like having one. I still have waves of shortness of breath and anxiety. I called in to the doctors for a chat about my SOB and cough and he assures me, even at 10 months this is still quite normal.

Hello again
So many new people and sadly a few less since I last posted. I'm not sure if anyone will remember me, I was caring for my mum who had emphysema, and sadly died at Christmas. I think it may be my turn to need help now. A routine health m.o.t with our practice nurse has lead to the probable diagnosis of

A couple of weeks back someone was cleaning in front of me and I started coughing and felt all wheezy. Went to the GP and they gave me a blue inhaler and told me to do peak flows for 2 weeks and that

Inhaler changes
So I have had an exercise induced wheeze for years, always taken salbutamol inhaler. For months possibly years my mum and stepmum have been on about my nighttime cough.

Getting emergency help.
Today I tried to phone my doctor for an emergency appointment after becoming suddenly very wheezy at work. After getting through 3 times I was cut off each time. Colleagues had allowed me to leave work , although I was evidentially wheezing hard and a 'funny colour' ( i am a primary school teacher).

Here we go again! Advice appreciated
Hi everyone, not been on here for a while so my brief history this year goes like this: repeated infections proven with sputum tests as always told my chest is clear, consultant started me on Azithromycin 3 times a week, as he now thinks I have broncistatus (can't spell sorry) although I had CT last

Asthma & Peak Flow
Hi there I am Nicola I am new here but figured this would be the best place to discuss my problem. I have had asthma since i was 14 I am now 29, the last time i went to the asthma nurse (Just moved doctors) she was skeptical as to whether I was asthmatic. When she tested my peak flow I can hit it

no air
Noticed over the past few days that even though im getting enough air in my lungs, I'm getting little oxygen. Ventolin helps but I need a fair bit before I feel any benefit. Peak flow isn't too low, about 70%. can anyone relate?

Has anybody got any ideas?
Morning all. I've been swimming before work every morning for the last 8 years and I feel that I have benefitted a lot from doing this. However, over the last few weeks one of those nasty automatic air fresheners has been introduced to the locker rooms. It sprays a foul smelling 'perfume' every 20

Set back
Had a bit of a set back last night. I have done nothing but cough and struggle to breath for 2 years. Got diagnoses of copd stage 2 with 54% lung function a couple of months ago. Gp put me on mucodyne 3 weeks ago and within days felt so much better it was unbliveable. Every one was noticing how well

Another viral exacerbation
Hi Everyone I'm suffering another viral exacerbation of asthma. I absolutely cannot manage if I get a cold. I got the symptoms of a cold last Thursday and by Friday I was seeing the GP as an emergency. Peak flow down to around 270-300 so he started me on Prednisolone. However, I think there was some
