Just a little rant!
Hi all, after what was a good 12 weeks for me with no admissions - the longest i had stayed at home since October was 2 weeks, everything feels like it’s going backwards! I have had 2 admissions in the last 4 weeks, one was requiring ITU for 2 nights, I was discharged on Wednesday this week, and again

Inhalers making symptoms worse
Hello all. I was diagnosed with asthma 25 years ago aged 40. It doesn't give me too much trouble (though I have other major health issues)! For the last few months I have been wheezy and coughing a lot, something that I get maybe once a year for six to eight weeks. Usually I just tolerate it until it

Formoterol and Albuterol
Hello again I'm on, and trailed Symbicort and Fostair (2xam, 2xpm and sometimes 1x dinner time) combi inhalers. I know the Formoterol side of the drug is a long acting bronchodilator but I was wondering if being on these, long term (or any term) has an affect on albuterol effectiveness? Does anyone find

Hello, Just Joined.
Hello everyone. I am just joining this group. I have a pulmonologist appt. next week. 1 appt. will be by video chat because of Covid-19. Any suggestions? I was diagnosed by my general practitioner in Dec 2019-Jan 2020 as having COPD. I currently take Trelegy inhaler 1 x per day, and a rescue

Itchy chin when coughing?
I’m currently being investigated for Asthma and have been put on Salbutamol which seems to help relieve symptoms. I’m not sure if this is related (but I’d heard through the grape vine) that an itchy chin when coughing can be linked to asthma? It’s the weirdest sensation... All very new to this!

Medication Dilemma
Last year I was on a cocktail of asthma drugs. Around this time I was regularly hitting my PB. I began to feel uncomfortable taking so many drugs and decided that I wanted to try controlling my asthma with combo inhaler and salbutamol. For the last 6 months or so I’ve not been anywhere near the PB set

Study shows asthma drug salbutamol’s potential as Alzheimer’s treatment.
A new study reveals that the common asthma drug salbutamol may offer potential as a treatment for Alzheimer’s disease. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of dementia, affecting 47 million people worldwide and its prevalence is expected to triple to more than 130 million cases by 2050. No effective

What I wish I had known (and what I have learnt through trial and error!)
Hi everyone Another repost from a couple years ago (and bought it up 8 months ago too apparently) so apologies if you’ve already read it 😉😂. But it’s another thing that those new to asthma may find helpful, and if anyone has anything they want to add just tag in! (I think this is the last for a while

What is Peak Flow?
There seems to be a lot of confusion of what peak flow is, how it works and what is a ‘good’ score so I thought I’d make a post on it! WHAT IS PEAK FLOW? Firstly peak flow (PF) can also be called peak expiratory flow (PEF) or peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) so any and all of these abbreviations means

Silent reflux or asthma?
I'm undiagnosed - now 3 months post-suspected-Covid, still with laboured breathing, and an "itchy" and often sore chest especially on the right side. I've had 2 chest infections. Most days I'm pretty good in the mornings, then it gets tight after lunch and progressively worse until after dinner. Night

Colistimethate powder for use in a nebuliser
Good afternoon all, on a daily basis I take the above powdered antibiotic (Promixin) through my nebuliser with a saline solution to help with my psudamonas bugs. The other day I noticed I had ran out of saline so I had to used one of my salbutamol solutions to mix it. Will this have been ok? Has anyone

Struggling
Hi all, hopefully you can give me advice. I’ve had asthma for years but it’s always been stable using clenil, salmeterol and salbutamol. Beginning of March it started to play up and over the following 2 months I had 2 courses of antibiotics and 2 courses of steroids which seemed to settle things down

Qvar and peak flow
I'm 12 weeks post-viral and have not been diagnosed with asthma. I (still) have breathlessness and itchy chest. I was given salbutamol 8 weeks ago and a trial of Qvar 4 weeks ago. I had an off-the-record chat with the respiratory nurse at the GP's where I work (not where I'm registered) last week. She

Fostair Tips
Hi! So, I have just come off the phone from one of the nurses at my GP surgery, and she has switched me from 200mg Clenil Modulite 1 puff 2x daily (initially I was on Clenil 100mg 2x puffs 2x daily but due to the shortage they changed me to the 200 and just halved the number of puffs) to Fostair 100/

Fostair not for everyone?
Hi all, I can see that Fostair has big benefits for a lot of people however I am not sure it’s working for me and I am keen to hear of any others that find it might actually make their breathing worse?? Since having a minor virus (maybe Covid) back in March, my normally controlled asthma has been much

Desloratidine side effects?
I've just been prescribed desloratidine and was stupid enough to read the side effects first. OMG. Just in the "most common" section it lists all the problems that I'm supposed to be taking it for, and a load more! I'm currently taking Clarithromycin for a chest infection and I've had at least 6 of the

What are your triggers for asthma attacks?
I'm new to all this. I've been on Qvar for nearly 3 weeks and I'm still needing my salbutamol, 2 puffs 4 times a day with wheezing and shortness of breath in between doses. I've worked out that my triggers for sudden constriction of airways includes; heat, aerosol cleaners, smoke (candles and bonfires
