Rant!
On friday, I went to see my local asthma nurse I was having a rough week, i.e. using an entire Ventolin MDI in a week, not good :( Anywho, she listened to my chest, heard no wheezing (probs due to me emptying half an inhaler down my throat that morning!) said I was fine and told me to stop panicking

Bricanyl inhalers
Hi I've just been to the chemist to collect my repeat prescription and have been told that Bricanyl inhalers have been discontinued. I find they work better than Salbutamol inhalers - does anyone know of an alternative? Thanks Sarah

Synacthen Test and Medication
I'm having a synathen test next week to see what a state the Pred's left my poor body in. I've been told that I mustn't take any meds for at least 48 hours before the test. I queried this with my nurse today because I thought it would just be steroid based meds I couldn't take, but she looked it up

Have I really got asthma?
Have had some strange experiences over the last 7 to 8 weeks but, more severely, over the past couple of weeks only which have been preliminary diagnosed as asthma (first time I've ever been ill in 45 years with something that couldn't be easily cured by OTC remedies bought at the Pharmacy). My first

Asthma attacks in sleep?
Hi guys, Last night had a dream about suddenly having an asthma attack, I woke up (at 5am) and it felt like the asthma attack had become real because there I was tight chested out of breath and wheezing a bit. It calmed down after i sat up taken some salbutamol and done some breathing exercises. But

Neb Guidance
Hi all. Hope evryone's well. Just a quick question. We got Holly's nebuliser a while back from cons so we could neb budesonide and salbutamol. I'm obviously very clear on the budesonide in that its twice a day but I was never given clear guidance on the salbutamol. Up to now I've been using my common

What is high dose corticosteroid? Also stepping down treatment?
I'm trying to work out what step of the asthma treatment guidelines I'm on. I take symbicort 400/12 2 puffs twice daily, Montelukast and Salbutamol as and when required. What bothers me is that despite being on the above for the last six months, my PF is still not back to my best and I am still more

Asthma and lack of/reduced sleep
hi Im not sure how to phrase this really, but I was wondering whether being sleep deprived can make asthma worse? I used to be able to cope with 4-6 hours sleep but recently I have been very busy and I havent been able to get to sleep until 12.30-1.30am and then I get up at around 6.30am for the last

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
