Trimbow / Fostair
Can anyone confirm my understanding please? I can't take fostair, it gave me awful palpitations, tremors and excess mucus to the point I felt like I was drowning when I lay down so it was quickly stopped. I saw a respiratory consultant recently and as most other inhalers have already been tried he suggested

Please help me breath. I'm desperate
Hi all, Sorry for the long post I really need some help and support as my GP isnt really moving as quickly as I need. I'd love the hive minds thoughts on this as i am DESPERATE. I've suffered on and on with indigestion my whole life. Around early 2020, I ended up on Lansoprazol 20mg per day. In March

spacer with mask vs spacer with mouthpiece
Hi all, I have recently been prescribed a spacer with a face mask- apparently it’s the latest recommendation. I have used a spacer with a mouthpiece for years. The idea is that you breathe normally through the mask , it should be more efficient at delivering the dose of inhaled medication- meaning that

eosinophil - cause for concern
hI I will contact my GP but as a I have been advised that my mild asthma has returned, I had a CBC and got the following eosinophil count - observation 0.9 10*9/l [0.0 - 0.4] is this typical for an asthmatic? does it mean EA? How much of a cause for concern should this be as I am anxious? I have

medical practice changing my inhaler for no apparent reason
I have just received a text message from my medical practice to say they are changing my inhaler from Fostair to Luforbec as per NHSL guidelines don’t know what these guidelines are . I have been on Fostair for 10 years and my asthma has fairly well controlled I’m a bit concerned to make this change

COPD medications
My mum was diagnosed with COPD and asthma over 10 years ago (though most probably had it much longer than that). She is increasingly breathlessness on any exersion, but Dr's don't feel she needs oxygen as her levels settle to acceptable levels quickly. However they feel that her condition is uncontrolled

Looks Like My Cholesterol Is High, Yikes
I've spent the best part of the day at my local hospital today. I saw my GP as I'd been experiencing increasing shortness of breath over the last week or so and as I had pericarditis last summer I think they wanted to be sure it wasnt anything similar. So I got sent to the one stop shop aka SDEC, same

oxygen on flight advice sought
I have had lupus for many years. I have interstitial lung disease and had a small part of lung removed due to lung cancer. My lung stats are 52 pev. I would like to fly short haul later in the year. My rheumatologist has suggested I may struggle with cabin pressure. I don’t use oxygen or inhaler
