Out of Remission. Starting over...
Hi everyone, Unfortunately after three months of remission I had a very bad flareup. The week before my husband and I were leaving for Maine (Sept) I decided to get a flu shot. Four days later while in Maine I started not to feel well. The usual PMR symptoms. I had no medication with me. My doctor

If control measures are stopping flu in its tracks, why aren’t they stopping coronavirus?
As the COVID-19 pandemic rages, other respiratory illnesses have been unusually quiet this year. Fears of a dangerous influenza and COVID-19 “syndemic” have not come to pass as influenza cases reached some of the lowest rates ever observed. The near absence of the flu might reflect increased rates of

Secondary pneumonia- post covid/ventilator
Hi everyone, My dad is off the vent and off sedation. He is breathing on his own but still in the hospital. However, today they said his breathing was a bit laboured. They also said his white blood count was low. They are suspecting secondary bacterial pneumonia. They have already started treating it

Why am I suffering from sore windpipe and chest?
Every week I have a recurring sore throat and trachea particularly at the base and my chest is sore. I have a bit of a cough but not much. Talking makes it worse and the cold weather. Not sure if it’s worth seeing my gp?

Bronchiectasis In The Cold Weather
Good afternoon all I am just wondering how everyone here who has Bronchiectasis copes with the cold weather. I have been trying to get out for regular walks, whilst I am shielding, I have to get out as I am a postman, and if I don't walk regularly at least every other day, I know I will have trouble

Smokers cough compared to covid cough
Hi all Hope everyone is keeping well, so I tried to stop smoking a few months back and it was going ok up until December when I had a relapse and started again. I know have a really crackly cough, sometimes thick phlegm will come up and it sounds clear again. I am pretty sure this is due to the smoking

Uncontrolled Asthma, repeated asthma attacks every day. Do I have bronchiectasis?
I am 52, slim, fit, healthy and quite fit with a balanced healthy diet no milk but plenty of bio yoghurt. I supplement with vit c, vit D and probiotics daily. I have had asthma since 4yo, productive chesty cough for twenty five years, chest infections two to six times a year swiftly cleared by Amoxicillin

Struggling with Covid and asthma.
I then get bad really quickly and start heading towards
respiratory
failure
. Think they thought I was ok when I first got there. I couldn't speak but they left me in a surgical mask, no O2 and no nebs. Took 3 tries to get my bloods in triage area. They then moved me to CDU.

Covid pneumonia, sedation weaning not working
My dad has been in ICU 2 weeks now after testing positive for Covid pneumonia. He has some underlying health conditions and has been up and down during his time there. They have started the weaning process this week and they said his body is panicking when they do so. He has failed to cope with the reduction

Hyperinflated lungs
I had pneumonia 2 years ago and chest xray showed hyperinflated lungs in line with copd. I had another xray 6 months later which still showed hyperinflated lungs. I had a pft 6 weeks after my pneumonia which was fine but I can't seem to get answers why my lungs are hyperinflated. All I have done is

Heart failure and permanent
Hiya all, I have heart failure and feel it might be getting worse as I am really tired and sleeping half the day away. Is there any procedure to help heart failure? I have been told I am lucky as don't have any blocked or furred up tubes but feel that people who have procedures seem to have better lifestyles
