Reversibility testing
My GP has booked me in for a reversibility test in a couple of weeks, I got a letter telling me not to use my salbutamol within 4 hour of the test, does this mean I need to miss my seretide too? Does the test mean that she is now doubting the diagnosis or is it a normal part of a review? I'm not entirely

Hi. Has anyone got any advice as too how to cope with a really painful pleural rub?. I've got a chest infection, and am on 2 sorts of high dose anti-biotics, 25mg Pred, salbutamol nebs and have been give co-codamol to take. If I take 1 painkiller, it doesn't work, but 2 make me feel sick and spaced out

peakflow improved since having steroid nasal spray
Does anyone share my experience? I was using salbutamol a lot and GP was not sure why. Anyway, he changed my nasal spray and eye drops to steroid rather than antihistamine ones, and I have used the salb. far less and my peak flow has improved. I also take loratadine every day. Maybe it is coincidence

Wonder if anyone can help me. Had a bad attack 2 weeks ago and am having a review next week to see how things are going. Still don't feel back to normal can't do everything I was doing before, taking more salbutamol and not working so long and maybe the worst of it being woken at night with atypical

Space age spacers
I have seen a big advert in the AsthmaUK magazine for a shiny metallic spacer called a Vortex. I want to make sure my child gets his proper dose of salbutamol and will travel to the furthest reaches of the universe to ensure he does. So I had a look on eBay to see if anyone was selling one these devices

Alternatives to preventer inhalers?
Has anyone experienced extreme side effects when using preventer inhalers? I have tried Beclomethasone (2 puffs daily) three times now and every time I use it, my breathing improves but after the second to third day I get crippling back pain/pressure. I really don't know how to move forward in getting

New to asthma and full of questions
I have a brown inhaler of
beclometasone
and a blue inhaler of
salbutamol
. I'm still a bit shocked that I've got asthma (though I had it for one summer when I was a teenager) but my real problem is my appetite. Since i've been ill i just can't finish a meal.

HELP - advice needed!
I have been on Singular 10mg tablets for 3 days as I was finding I got a lot of backache with steriod preventer inhalers. However, my asthma feels worse than ever and have chest pain/tightness as well as aching shoulder muscles. I was wondering, would it be okay for me to restart my Beclometasone inhaler

Respiratory arrest
Hi I am a newbie. I was just wondering if anybody could explain what a respiratory arrest is? I had an asthma attack and the ambulance staff thought I had stopped breathing, even though I was on 6L of oxygen, and they said I went unconscious and rushed me to hospital, but I came around and my oxygen

Cold + too much salbutamol
So I'm a hypochondriac anyway so this may just be me being paranoid but I have a cold right now that's decided to settled on my chest. I've had to take my salbutamol twice in 3 hours and after this second time it's already wearing off. I read the patient leaflet and it says if you take too much and experience
