Salbutamol Inhaler not used as a reliever anymore?
Hi Yesterday I had my yearly Asthma review with the nurse from our surgery which quite frankly was a waste of my time. However what did concern me was that she tried to take away my Salbutamol Inhaler (actually there & then) telling me they do not recommend them any more as a reliever & that I am

Singulair side effect or just anxiety?
I know this med is posted a lot, and there are a ton of different side effects people experience but I am wondering if mine are related to Singulair or if it truly is anxiety. Sorry ahead of time for such a long post! I recently experienced heart palpitations while driving, was lightheaded, faint,

Salbutamol for Myasthenia
My EMG results were "Normal" so, despite the fact I have chronic muscle weakness that responds to prednisolone, 0.12 nmol/L of anti-AChR antibodies, and have lost my tendon reflexes, my neurologist says I don't have any neurological condition. I also have no detectable inflammation, so my rheumatologist

Best inhalers
Have severe copd emph and bronchiectasis, currently on Trimbow at the highest dose. It's taken 2 x a day morning and evening but the problem is it's not lasting for the alotted time and i am getting v breathless before I'm due another dose. Are there any better similar inhalers that one can take more

MY COPD REVIEW - Really.
I went for my 30 minute COPD Review with the nurse. Right - She started talking inhalers - I though "Wait for it) and yes, she said I probably would be better on Trimbow rather than three inhalers. I told her I was happy with Ventalin, Ipratropium bromide and Fostair inhalers., She mentioned Trimbow

2x Emergency Steroids in one month
Well, if you said to me to stay off work last week, you were probably absolutely right 😂 I got some kind of flu-ey thing which left me wiped out on Monday and then - [i]whoosh[/i] - straight to my chest. I went to the dr on Tuesday and he was reluctant to prescribe me anything because I'd just had

Very breathless lying down
Hi people, I am 62, ex long term smoker. Here is my situation. I regularly wake up too early in the am and after going to the loo I try to go back to sleep but start to experience what feels like suffocation or as if I've forgotten to breathe. Often I can't breathe through my nose because of congestion

nebulised salbutamol
just found out from a pharmacist friend that there’s going to be a shortage, so you might want to order some if you can

COPD medications
My mum was diagnosed with COPD and asthma over 10 years ago (though most probably had it much longer than that). She is increasingly breathlessness on any exersion, but Dr's don't feel she needs oxygen as her levels settle to acceptable levels quickly. However they feel that her condition is uncontrolled

Which one?
After recently being diagnosed with mild COPD, advice would be appreciated. I had struggled with my coughing and phleghm for the last 8 months, I am an ex smoker after quitting 17 years ago and had no issues up to that point. At the initial time they thought I may be asthamatic so for the last 8 months

COPD question
Hi all, Can anyone tell me if you can get a Disabled Badge on the strength of being diagnosed with COPD ? I am 80 yrs old next month and I can't walk very far these days without getting out of breath and suffering pain in my foot. I have Chronic Leukemia and a dropped foot problem which makes walking

Another Nebuliser question
Hi - I've been watching tthe discussions about nebulisers. For some time I have thought one might be helpful (COPD severe). My COPD team were fairly unhelpful but the respiritory nurse at my GP surgery as just prescribed some Salbutamol nebules. She is now away on holiday. I have bought myself a portable

Good sats - so why so breathless?
THAT is indeed the question. Why, with my peripheral O2 levels at 94/5 %even 96% am I still fighting to breath? It goes like this. I wake short of breath. I rise and take my Oximeter (I have several; they all show the same) . My level is, say 92%. I do controlled breathing using a computer monitor

Severe Eosinophilic Asthma
Hi does anyone on here suffer from Severe Eosinophilic Asthma? My husband has been very incapacitated by this since March 2020 which came on suddenly and has not improved since then despite continuous steroids, inhalers and trying the latest injections. He’s had to pack up his business and still cannot
