High Heart Hormones
Can anyone fill me in on what these actually mean? I have a history of AF/Tachy. I am back in AF now and have been since beg March. Still awaiting to speak with my cardiologist. As an asthmatic, I got my peak flow checked and my GP ran BNP test. I have high heart hormones but tbh .. I have no idea

Oxygen levels/peak flow
Hi everyone I had a flare up of asthma today, no idea what's caused it. Felt quite wheezy and tight-chested earlier. Managed to get an emergency appointment with a nurse I'd never seen before who didn't seem that bothered. Sure enough, my peak flow is normal (560) and my oxygen was 98%. No wheeziness

Food and Flare-Ups, Clinical Significance of ANA
Hi everyone, I am curious about certain foods and their connection to flare-ups. I have found that gluten, soy, dairy, and refined sugars cause a lot of problems for me. Is it common for certain foods to make symptoms worse? What foods do you find help with symptoms? My second question is about ANA

Asthma without infection
Brief history. Moved north to West Yorkshire in 1974 (aged 29). Started with beathing difficulties. Had allergy tests and a course of desensitisation injections, which worked, but whenever I caught a cold, it morphed into a sore throat and chest infection leading to gasping for breath. Major attack

GP's and medication
I'm beginning to think GP's have been instructed to stop offering treatment for various conditions! Recently I have been to my arthritis is impacting on things I can do, "sorry nothing for it , take paracetamol or ibuprofen" but you know I can't take ibuprofen! Then I go saying my peak flow is down

New to the forum Peak Flow questions
Hi and thank you for allowing me to join your forum. Q: So I've done a peak flow diary over 22 days before I speak to GP tomorrow. My average readings are between 250 and 290. Is this poor? I have a complex health history, many battles with health pros, lots of investigations and some firm diagnoses

Really positive respiratory review
I know I've moaned a lot on here about the difficulties I've had in getting the right care since diagnosis, but I had an annual respiratory review this week and it was really good - so thorough, and the nurse really listened to what I was saying and was working with me to keep the asthma well managed

Constant green phlegm since March 2023
Hello. I was diagnosed with asthma in 2019 after a nasty chest infection where the GP said my chest was very wheezy and suggested that she thought I had asthma. It was confirmed over the next 2 months by spirometry and peak flow with the asthma nurse. I was given Fostair 200/6 and used it until February

New adult onset asthma
Hi all, I'm a man in my early 40s of normal weight and never smoked. I've just come out of hospital with what is assumed to be a severe asthma attack. I spent 10 days in respiratory ward. My o2 got down to 89% and my peak flow down below 200. It took me a long time to turn round but now back at home

Asthma Drs do they know.
Hi There are times when I can’t breath, but when I check my Sats they are between 90 and 95. But I still struggle, the hospital Dr says it can’t be bad as I am between 90 and 95. I am usually 85 up my peak flow is 250 best and 150 in the morning. I don’t know why I struggle at that No but it’s scary

How could AI help in asthma care?
Hi all! I have a question for you: as an asthma patient, how do you think AI could potentially help meet needs you have that aren't currently being met? For example, I have been reflecting on how doctors could potentially use AI to more accurately diagnose, treat, and educate patients. For me personally

respiratory medicine
I have an appointment at the hospital for respiratory medicine consultation. They have requested that I bring- peak flow diary, all medication and my asthma management plan. I have never had a peak flow diary or asthma management plan, should I have been given these by my doctor?

Fatty Liver disease and Triglyceride levels
Is it common place for people with fatty liver disease to have elevated triglyceride levels? Would you expect triglyceride levels to correlate with a fibroscan CAP score? There's also a particular type of cholesterol associated with the liver called VLDL: Is this a test that an NHS GP can do or is

LDN for RLS??
I wonder if others know about LDN? I just found out that it maybe can help RLS. LDN, in case you’re unfamiliar, is “Low Dose Naltrexone”. It’s an older medication that has to be compounded into a tiny therapeutic dose for use “off label”. It’s a known to be both an anti-inflammatory medication and

asthma making me nervous to do cardio exercise
hi all, so I’m on trimbow and rescue inhalers. I’m probably about 3-4 stone overweight for my age and height and I do smoke, but I am managing to cut down. I always feel like I struggle to breath but my peak flow is around 600 mark and my oxygen level is good. I do suffer anxiety though and my breathing

A new randomised study comparing diets
A new randomised study compares a low carbohydrate diet to the DASH diet. The conclusion: the low carb diet wins hands down. https://www.annfammed.org/content/21/3/256

Thinking of our conversation on pred level and how to handle stressful moments to keep adrenal drama at bay....
So things for me and PMR and pred have not gone the way a lot of folks have. I read about when you take the pred in the beginning most have amazing relief then begin the journey of slowly reducing to find the next good dose. Then reading the symptom tea leaves of symptoms to make decisions on the next

Does peak flow increase in non asthmatics following ventolin?
Say someone has no classic symptoms of asthma (wheezing, breathlessness or coughing). Peak flow has always been low their whole life but has a small variation everyday (290- 330). Spirometry is normal (including above average fev1). No change in peak flow following a 5 week steroid inhaler trial. Can
