Has Anyone Had Any Texts Saying To Stop Shielding?
Apparently they went out last Friday and some with
severe
asthma
are coming off the shielding list.

Hi all, so I have
severe
eosinophilic

How to cope?
My symptoms began truly way back at 8 year old, my first period landed me in hospital. I suffered massive traumas, abuses at the hands of several pervert men, abuses from parents, bullied etc... how i made it this far is beyond me. Edit: These abuses were in childhood and are for context that i suffered

Asthma vs Anxiety vs Breathing Pattern Disorders
Hi all It’s a very stressful time at the moment, with some people shielding, others worried about work and how to apply the new rules and regs, and still others struggling with after effects of covid etc etc. There are a million and one things people may be anxious over and stressing about right now

Bronchiectasis and asthma.
Hi everyone, I have fairly
severe
asthma
, and mild bronchiectasis. I also have silent reflux and osteoporosis. I've had a flare up of asthma and my bronchiectasis and am just coming to the end of 3 weeks of Azithromycyn. I'm still coughing and occasionally wheezing.

When To Take Medications
Evening fellow asthma friends. Question. I am on Symbicort 200/6. I take one puff in day and one puff in eve. The doctor tells me I have six remaining puffs to play with as needed. What does as needed mean? Whenever I feel any asthma symptom? The problem with that is I often feel asthma symptoms that

Asthma UK's update on "no longer needing to shield" texts
If you’ve not had one of these texts, which should be the vast majority of people with
severe
asthma
who are shielding, then you should continue to follow the stay-at-home guidance until the end of June.

Mouth breathing in asthma?
Hi all, just wondering how many of you find you breathe through your mouth as opposed to your nose a lot/most of the time? It's something I've grown up doing and I'm not sure whether it's common in asthma or just a bad habit I started in childhood.

NHS Risk categories
They changed it on the 1st or 2nd May I think , 2 groups Very High Risk ( which included
severe
asthma
) and High Risk ( which included mild, moderate asthma).

Weird new allergies and non-allergic asthma
I have
severe
non-allergic, non-eosinophilic
asthma
, but also have hayfever - which is a bit weird but I have read up on it and it's possible; seems to be mainly trees.

Terrible letter, good result.!!!
Hi, for those of you who supported me with sound advice (thanks so much) l thought l would share with you the outcome of my abnormal routine bowel screening. l finally had a phone call to have a Colonoscopy but l did not want any invasive procedure if it wasn't needed so l asked for a CT of the bowel

Asthma Attack
Hi - I was wondering if anyone could give me a bit of advice. I have suffered from asthma for quite a few years and this has always been under control until a couple of weeks ago. I went to work as normal (I work in a hospital) and must admit I didn't feel brilliant when i got up anyway after speaking

Is laparoscopy worth it if I'm not in severe pain? (Severe endo)
2 years ago now I started getting mild pains and UTI symptoms.

I've been put on Triptorelin shots to prepare for the
