Asthma and smoking..anyone smoke??
Hi all hope your keeping well, I'm having trouble with stopping smoking and I feel like my asthma is constant but my peak flow and oxygen are fine. Is it possible that thinking about the asthma to much is making it worse? And does anyone here with asthma smoke?? How does it make your throat feel if so

Weird new allergies and non-allergic asthma
Anyone else have this issue? 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. I have triggers including floral scents such as lavender, rose, violet etc but they just trigger asthma

No intial loss
So I am not getting why I am not losing weight. I have completed C25K, changed diet to healthy eating and now on a vegan low carb and still only lost a total of 1kg (over a total of 9wks). My overall goal is not to be on a yo-yo diet I really just want to eat health, exercise and once a week enjoy a

Major thanks to all for advice given re peak flow and inhalers. Now taking a preventer I no longer need a reliever and increased peak flow from low 300's to now 500 in just 2 weeks.

Running after C25K experience
I’m taking it

as not quite at 4
k
yet but very pleased to be getting out there . I definitely find the first 5-10 mins harder than the last as I try to get my breathing settled and oxygen levels up.

Antihistamines
I posted a couple of weeks ago about a nightly cough, and varied peak flow of between 380 and 500 (best is 500). I finally got a GP who believed it wasn't covid and was prescribed fexofenadine and dymista (plus a saline nasal spray). I am also on Fostair 200/6, montelukast, and spireva as well. These

Low Carb Diet - Vegan
Hi Has anyone on this forum undertaken a low carb (clean eating) vegan diet and has any pointers - really new to the low carb diet and so confused with milk alternatives and whether they are low carb??? Thanks :)

What do people mean when they say….
Diet
This phrase is a bit ambiguous: it can mean [i]way of eating, [/i]see below, or it can mean a temporary weight loss plan that you only do for a short amount of time, before returning to your previous diet. See? It's confusing!
WOE/Way of eating
The term diet has negative connotations

Buddha bowl fruit salad
So it's not particularly low-carb, but I just fancied some refreshing fruit this evening. It consists of apple, small apricot, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries plus a dollop of peanut butter scattered with toasted seeds. I eat it with that tiny dessert fork (pretentious? moi?) as it seems to make

Going Back to Work in a Nursery

LCHF mythbusting : part II
Another in my ongoing series of rants!
LCHF only works because it reduces your calories.
This one drives me crazy. It's usually preceded by a grudging acknowledgement that "LCHF works, but ..." and concluded with "... so any calorie-controlled diet would work as well". To which the obvious response

Hospital trips and covid
Hi Has anyone been to hospital with their normal astma symptoms? I ask as I have been three times. Each time I've been treated with the assumption I have covid. They wait for test to come back before moving me to a cold ward. Its made me very nervous about asking for help and only go when my wife

Insulin and Prostate.
This is a VERY interesting video to gentlemen of a certain age concerning enlarging of the prostate. Previous to watching this my take was a shrug of the shoulders in that it's 'something that comes to men with age. I'd gone as far as I could in researching the condition and came up against 'testosterone

Question about asthma and mucus
Hi all hope your staying safe So I'm still struggling with stopping smoking and have had a phlegmy cough for ages now, and I'll cough up thick mucus. Does mucus form in airways??
