Fit bit info when in asthma flare up
Wondered if anyone else noticed odd things with fit bit/ other similar watch info when in an asthma flare up/attack. Two weeks ago had a flare up, asthma symptoms lasted about a day and half, which is fairly short for me and managed to get on top of it with reliever and steroid inhaler. During that

Dienogest & Mirena
Hi ladies I'm after a bit of advice. I have stage 4 endo already had loads of surgeries ; bowel resection, uretic stents, stoma etc. The only further surgery the hospital will do is a total clearance and as I'm only 34 they won't consider that and I understand that the risk of doing so are quite high

Sore upper chest
Hi. Wondering if anyone else has had anything similar. My upper chest feels really sore and has for about two weeks. I finished steroids last week as my pf dropped to 500 (usually 650). I have moved house and lots of dust as I’m am waiting for my flooring to be laid. My peak flow is now about 550.

Anyone had an asthma attack made worse by using Salbutamol?
Hi all. Does Salbutamol usually cause faster breathing, or other side effects after taking 6 - 10 puffs within 15 minutes due to an Asthma attack? I have had an attack which wasn’t relieving after my usual 2 sets of 2 puffs over 10 minutes. So I started to have 1 puff every few minutes. However by

Hormones and asthma
I've had a few months of fluctuating asthma symptoms where it would be okay for a couple of weeks and then really bad (mainly with the cough). My preventer inhaler has been changed 3 times and I've been on montelukast for just over a month but it's made no difference and I couldn't identify anything

Eosinophil Asthma
At 17 my daughter had a number of chest infections and hospital admissions. Over a period of around a year she was diagnosed with eosinophil asthma and has had one of the highest feno counts the consultant has seen. She has been on steriods now for 2 years ( between 40mg and 20 mg) and every inhaler

Coping with breathlessness
I have
severe
asthma
, and often struggle with breathlessness during activities that for most people my age wouldn’t present a problem (brisk walking, stairs, gentle exercise eg slow yoga, etc). I find this embarrassing, as well as a bit scary.

Swollen tonsil from asthma?
Good morning all, I was wondering whether any of you have had issues with a single swollen tonsil in relation to their asthma please? The oh-so lovely Dr. Google tells me this can be one of the first signs of tonsil cancer, so I know it's one of those things I should suss out with the doc but just wondered

Asthma and alcohol
It seems obvious that alcohol has a negative effect on asthma management. However as a I have become a little older the extent of this has become more apparent. I still run a bit even though I'm in my 50s but trying to run in the days after drinking is a horrible gasping affair. The more alcohol the

Child proton pump inhibitor use may increase asthma risk.
To our knowledge, this is the first study to evaluate the relationship between PPI use and the subsequent risk of asthma. We identified a significant risk of asthma among patients using PPIs when compared to the non-PPI population after matching by propensity score and adjusting for age, gender, comorbidities
