Changing from MDIs to DPIs for the environment
It concerns me when I read up the plans to change to dry powder inhalers (DPIs) that the patient's voice and experience seems not to be included in the discussion. I am all for being more environmentally friendly, but at what cost to at least some patients? 1. In 2019 I was swapped from Symbicort,

What would you do next?
*Long post* alert đ˘ So, about 5/6 hours after the consultant told me on Monday that my asthma's fine because it hasn't flared since September, my body decided to prove him wrong and I've spent a week having constant mini - and one not so mini - asthma attacks. I started steroids and antibiotics from

Nexthaler - any comments?
I recently changed from the normal pink inhaler to the Nexthaler. I don't seem to be getting the same benefits. Anyone else found the same?

awful cough since starting suflasalazine alongside methotrexate
my husband was diagnosed with PMR over 3 years ago after a year of tapering steroids and also starting methotrexate he was still getting aches and pains and was given sulfasalazine which he has taken for a year or so and this has helped control his pains and inflammatory markers along side the methotrexate

Luforbec
Hi All, New to the forum and just wondered if anyone is having a problem after being switched from Fostair to Luforbec? I got changed over in December and got very chesty, run down and a lot of mucus production that wouldn't shift. My peak flow dropped about 80 points. I'm not breathless but get out

Query asthma- advice needed
Good evening. I have three children, the oldest is 12 and was diagnosed with asthma shortly after he turned 5, for the most part, his asthma is well-managed and rarely causes him problems. My middle child is asthma free which is great but they are querying asthma in my youngest, she is currently 4 (

Emotion, asthma and the full moon
I have been gasping for air and reaching for salbutamol this morning. I guess there is nothing unusual in that ! Do my fellow asthmatics believe there is a connection between stress and asthma, between anxiety and asthma, and between emotion and asthma ? Have my fellow coughers noted any connection

Are biologics (Xolair, Dupixent, Nucala or Fasenra) really worth the cost & side effects
I have asthma as well as elevated eosinophols (~850 mcL). The asthma is well controlled with an inhaler, but I have some concerns with long-term use of an inhaler so my interest is peaked by all of the advertisements about the various biologic treatments. For those who take one of these biologics

Constrictive Bronchiolitis - Please Help Me
Hello, I am new here and I believe I have constrictive bronchiolitis. Here is my story: I was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis in 2017 via VATS surgery. I never really understood how I got it. I originally went in to my doctor because I had bouts of GERD that woke me up at night with severe coughing

Clenil quantities
Hi, I've had asthma for a little under 40 years. In the last year or so I've noticed that my Clenil inhaler (the brown one) last only 2-3 months whereas previously it lasted around 6 months. Does anyone know why this may be? My dosage and technique haven't changed.

Running in Portugal
Blue sky, sunshine, a gentle cooling breeze and a campsite across the road from the sea. That, coupled with a nice flat, traffic-free promenade that stretches for miles meant it was perfect for a run, to the background of the incoming tide crashing on the rocks. After nearly 20000 steps yesterday walking

Aching legs
I have mild COPD but have started to have aching legs, more so in the evenings and in bed. Mostly both my thigh areas and sometimes lower legs. I have no swelling or bad pain or redness etc. Does anyone else suffer from this as I cant decide if its linked to my condition or not. I feel it is but could

Great News and a question
I have always been good at getting my yearly checkups. As I approached my 80s I figured I would eventually get test results below normal. At nearly 81 all my bloodwork came back normal again and A1c down to 5.4. Woo hoo. Not sure about my cortisol though at 3.8 mcg/dl from fasting blood draw at noon.
