Short of breath
I live in scotland and last night and today I just feel like I'm not getting a proper breath, I've taken my prventer as normal and tried taking my reliever with no huge effect. My peak flow is good, any advice on what to do? I have no cough or wheeze just feeling shirt of breath Thanks

Everythings changed on here.
Haven't been on here for a while, bowed out when things were getting nasty, hope everything is calm and happy now? Just logged on to - once again - praise the NHS, or at least the Castle Ward of Royal Berks Hospital in Reading. Rocked up at A & E last Saturday at 5.30 am with COPD (or is it?) breathing

Peak Flow - does it work?
Has anyone else found that you can have a tight chest yet no dip in your peak flow. Other times my peak flow will correspond to how I'm feeling but often it just doesn't! and GPs act like its the best thing ever ! If i have a good peak flow whilst I'm in the docs they'll just act like I'm right as rain

Cleansing: Why, When and How By Thomas Stearns Lee, NMD It seems like everyone wants to "cleanse" these days. Are we all just dirtier or is a cleanse just a normal healthy thing to do to keep us healthy? The ancient cultures all seem to have regular times and procedures to practice cleansing.

Should I stay or should I go now
I have been struggling all last week with my asthma and hay fever obviously the current very high and high pollen count and hot weather are not helping me. Unfortunately, things are getting worse for me, yesterday I used a total 26 puffs Bricanyl reliever for the day, and a total of 10 nebs for the day

Home peak flow vs Lung function test peak flow
Hi there! I have been monitoring my peak flow twice daily for the past few years and my personal best is around 360, and my lowest is 200. However, I recently had a spirometry/ lung function test in the hospital and the technician gave me a value of 5.8 for my PEF- how does this relate to the peak flow

Update - having hard time with taper, doctors
Eight months ago I came down with a cold which turned into one of my worst periods of uncontrolled asthma in years. Things hit a low point at the beginning of May when I was hospitalized for an asthma flare-up. The week after I left the hospital, things were really good and I thought that finally

Visit to asthma nurse tomorrow.
I am visiting the asthma nurse tomorrow and will ask about a rescue pack at home. She usually just asks about my peak flow and that is it. Do you think I should be asking her about anything else given that my asthma has now landed me in A + E for the first time and I have more or less constant SOB

Getting a diagnosis

Peak-Flow Diary Site
Has anyone used this site before? I've been using it whilst I record 4wks worth of PF - due to detriation of my symptons. Just not sure if it's just me not figuring it out, or if it's just confusing.

Introduction
Hi some is you may have noticed my recent posts on other threads, and I decided to introduce myself. I was diagnosed with adult onset asthma in early 2009 after a bad chest infection. I had been doing well and was reduced from 400/12 Symbicort to 200/6 last autumn without experiencing problems. This
