chest tightness

I have hardly had any reoccurring symptoms like wheezing, coughing or shortness of breath but I seem to have chest tightness almost every night. My rescue inhaler ventolin does not help with the tightness and

Question re calories and LCHF diet
Could someone advise whether one has to count calories on a LCHF diet. Ive lost 4lb since starting this week and don't want to stop the process- have not been counting carbs at all. Have eaten a lot but within an eight hour window. Thanks for advice!

Does low carb help with Sjögrens pain?
Hi, I’m a newbie :) My husband is newly diagnosed with sjogrens. I have secondary sjogrens. My husband gets painful flares mainly in the hands and shoulder. I was watching Dr.Berry on YouTube who was saying that Keto diet helps with joint pain etc as less carbs and only eating certain dairy ie cream

Sorry if this has been asked before. Does anyone suffer from recurrent chest infections?
At the moment I seem to be getting chest infections every 2 weeks- a month and am getting pretty fed up. I have been told I don’t have asthma or a lung condition as even though my peak flow is low it’s because I’m in a wheelchair! Even though I’m a full time athlete. I keep getting very short of breath

Multiple autoimmune diseases and raised dose of T4
Does anyone else here have this mix - Hashimoto’s, Sjögren’s, overlap connective tissue diseases which include Raynaud’s and Erythromelagia, neuropathy and Vitiligo? Also lymphedema (fluid retention) relating to the above - particularly in the abdomen and pelvic area. I’m awaiting tests to see if I have

ADF anecdotal - it works for this lady!
I think and advise that ADF or any other form of IF works so much better in combination with LCHF - without counting anything. She is 23% body fat which (for a young lady) is in the same (athletic) band as my 14%, being a 70-year-old male. She "sussed it out" and started off with ADF and used 4:3 later

High Fat vs High Protein diet for Type 2 diabetic
I have consulted a renowned endocrinologist in Bangalore for my diabetes management. As my BMI is on lower side (18.5), he suggested to have 2200 KCal diet plan for increasing my weight and changed medication Olymprix M 500/20 mg (metformin/teneligliptin) from twice to once a day. Also regarding diet

Question about GERD and asthma?
So I'm still not sure if I have asthma or not. But the basic of the story is after several infections etc I may or may not have asthma, see asthma nurse next week to go over peak flow. In the meantime while I am suffering yet another infection, one if the lovely ladies on my yard asked if doc had spoken

Is creatine a bad idea?
Hi is it dodgy if I take creatine? I'm early stage one CLL. I've gone on a vegan low-carb diet and my numbers go down each month with it but I've lost some weight. I wonder if taking creatine to boost my muscles is a bad idea. Thank you!

Asthma triggered by ibuprofen?
Yesterday I had a very large hip labral tear repaired. My resps apparently went so low with Fentanyl I wasn’t allowed any more. Apparently that is 10 resps per min. At 8 they have to breath for you. Anyway I am undergoing a raft of tests at the moment as the GP thinks no wheeze and a normal peak flow

Puzzled - stepping up preventer medicine when symptoms come on so quickly
I was diagnosed at age 60 close to 6 years ago after a series of winter illnesses left me breathless and with a constant cough. My asthma was well controlled after a number of weeks on Clenil Modulite. Then a GP suggested I step down to 1 puff twice a day from 2. All was well until I got a chest infection

Specialist appointment - after 15 months
So finally got my specialist appointment for a consultant that I was with previously waiting since last August. I was waiting so long I went to see him private and because I have involved in a study he said he wouldn't change anything with my inhalers until he was seeing as a public patient in the hospital

Asthma Novice at 32
Hi folks, so I was diagnosed with 'mild asthma' as a late teen. Got the little white inhaler and a few days if be fine. I then had it return 5 years ago at 27 when pregnant and got a blue inhaler. Can you tell I'm a proper novice? Figured I'd grown out of it as I've had no issues since... Until 3 weeks

Awaiting diagnosis for asthma...peak flow 350...36 yr old female
