Has anyone been treated with monthly shots of pentamidine by nebuliser to protect from infection while immunity is low following chemo?
I find it makes me cough and very wheezy. Also the skin on my face seems to react and turn red and blotchy. has any one had a similar reaction? What alternative medication could I be taking instead? Any suggestions?

Please see long version below
My father has cancer and copd - her is currently using a nebuliser to help his breathing - I think he could be assisted by oxygen but he is so independent and does not ask for help - what can I do to help him?

Frustration over GPs!
I have come onto this forum for the first time today hoping to see I'm not alone! I had to take my just-6 year old to the doctors today as she had a bad night and I was going to nebulise her but realised the nebules were out of date. I left feeling very upset and frustrated that I was once again told

Asthma, work, and bullying
Hi guys I've not been around for ages, so I hope you don't mind me having a rant and asking for your advice... I am currently working as a Staff Nurse on a very busy acute respiratory ward, full time and on 12.5 hour shifts. I have always been honest with work/Occy health with regards to my brittle

Typical!
Hello everyone and happy Christmas to all of you. Well today has been awful! Woke up this morning feeling a bit chesty and the feeling of being exhausted and a run over feeling. I pulled myself together for my 16 yr old daughters sake and my elderly parents who are staying for a few days...not easy

Fed up
Hi I have been on Symbicort 200 and 400. I found Symbicort really helped with my asthma after struggling for 6 months on various other inhalers. Unfortunately my asthma is yet again playing up badly and I am having 'attacks' at least 5 times per day (where I have to use my reliever and often at least

What do you do when everything happens at once?
Hi guys, So for some reason I seem to be having a really rough go. I've never had THIS many health issues at the same time before. And since I have a newish job on top of it, it's been kind of scary. Anyways, I've taken 4 days off of work this month, which is actually the most I've ever taken. I wasn't

In denial with diagnosis and differing opinions confusing me!
My 3 year old son had frequent 'viral induced wheeze' episodes in his first 18 months which resulted in hospitalisation; nebuliser and steroid. We then saw a private consultant who advised that children with many 'chest infections' are actually asthmatic. Is this really as scientific as a diagnosis

chest clear but difficulty breathing
hi I went to see my doc on thursday with a chesty cough and breathing problems, my doc said my chest was clear (surprise, surprise!) and gave me some antibiotics to take if chest wasn't any better in a few days, I then mentioned that I was having really bad coughing fits where I couldn't catch my breath

Confusing Consultant
I was in A&E tonight, I was blue lighted in and taken straight to resus, had wheezing all over my lungs but was able to maintain my oxygen sats with a lot of hard work.

Best nebulisers
Hello everyone. I have bronchiectasis. I nebulise hypertonic saline, then breathing exercises before inhaling nebulised colomycin twice a day. My question is to find out from those of you who perform this routine, what are the best nebulisers? I have been loaned one from the NHS, but it is heavy

Good old asthma memories
So I was just sharing with a friend, that I'm set to go home for our upcoming Thanksgiving holiday in the States, and that I'm a bit apprehensive at the idea of using my nebulizer in my mother's living room. She's not very good with illness of any kind. Three years ago I went, and used my inhalers in
