Recording PF with inhalers?
Hi All, I've been recording my PF as was advised and to note if its increased after use my inhaler, before I did this with my blue inhaler ventolin, but now I have an ICS - Easyhaler budesonide, do I use this and record PF instead of my blue inhaler now or?

Significant reduction in Ventolin inhaler use after Astra Zenica Covid vaccination.
I had my first Astra Zenica covid vaccination about a month ago so after a lifetime of Ventolin and/or Salbutamol inhaler use, I do not see how it can be a coincidence that my reliance on the aforementioned inhalers has gone from several times a day to maybe once a week or less. I still take my preventer

COPD
Hello everyone I hope you’re all doing ok. I was on here a few years ago because I was so sure I had COPD I had something wrong with my chest. However after several test and trips to the doctor it turned out I had a really bad lung infection which eventually cleared up. Fast forward 4 years I have recently

Advice on power breathe and flutter.
I’ve read that breathing exercises help with many lung conditions. I’ve COPD and take Braltus and ventolin if needed. Does any one have knowledge of Powerbreathe and Flutter devices, please? I’d really like to do more for my health and feel less constricted with breathing. With many thanks. xx🤗

Asthma flare after covid vaccine
Has anyone had an asthma flare up after a covid vaccine (astrazeneca)? It could be complete coincidence, but my asthma is being an absolute pain and not responding as well as normal to ventolin (though interestingly is responding to extra formoterol). I am wondering if there's a link, as my asthma

Action plan conundrum
Sorry, this may become a bit long. After an flair over Christmas I realised I had no up-to-date action plan. My Symbicort/Smart was changed to Fostair a year or so ago due to thrush issues. And it has been ok, but I got no new action plan, and then Covid hit, and I just didn’t think about it. Anyway

Add on of Atrovent
Hi, Hope everyone is well. I’m having another flare up of my asthma, it has been poorly controlled for about 6 months and I’m on my third lot of prednisolone. I’ve only ever been on one steroid inhaler which is currently Fostair 100/6, having switched to this from Duoresp Spiromax 320/9 a couple of

Steroid inhaler which doesn't raise anxiety!!
Hi All, I've been on the search for a decent steroid inhaler with minimal side effects and mainly not to mess with anxiety Etc! Latest one I've tried is Symbicort! Raised my anxiety along with other horrible symptoms! So I'm guessing its formoteral at fault, as had same issue with Fostair! Any body

Too much Fostair
Hi I have a cough and accidentally took 4 bad puffs of Fostair 200/6 in the night instead of ventolin. Bad isn’t that I was coughing lots so coughed out, but still 4 puffs. Any advise? Thought I’d skip morning dose and use ventolin. Then eve as normal? It’s really not a bad cough and my asthma is

Any insight or advice into how long Clenil takes to work, and when to step up medication?
Hi all, I have had two different medical opinions and so just wondered if anyone could offer any insight before my review tomorrow. I am new to asthma and have been put on Clenil 16 days ago. I was also given a 5 day course of prednisone steroid tablets at the same time. The Pred made me fully better

Tips for dealing with Drs who don't get peak flow is personal...
I've finally got my (re-)referral appointment tomorrow but unfortunately with the same doctor who told me I needed to reduce my meds as my peak flow was too high 🤦🏻♀️, this was despite needing ventolin a few times a week and having quite large daily and day to day variability in my peak flow. She

Why dont Asthma UK product merchandise ?
Hello all , hope you are all ok. I wondered why Asthma UK don't sell things for income and awareness. Why not a mask with their logo ? Don't get me wrong the masks have been difficult for me to wear during my shopping adventures : ) I managed to get my first Coronavirus jab today on the first

Am I imagining this??
So, tonight I went to bed early (long week and not feeling the best), and I have a fan going. I don’t always sleep with a fan, but wanted the cool air on me tonight. I don’t know if I am imagining this but, when I turned over and faced the cool air, I suddenly noticed I could breathe a little better.

Sob and sats of 94
Hello My asthma settled recently however for the last 3 days I’ve been becoming increasingly SOB and have needed ventolin alongside the fostair (I use fostair 4x a day) I did my sats out of interest (tho I know these aren’t often helpful with asthma) as I feel quite ‘weird’ and they are dipping to

Needing a lot of Ventolin for mild symptoms- not unwell enough to call 999 but using up to 10 or more puffs- is this normal?
Hi. I’m new to having Adult Onset Asthma/ Long Covid/ Covid-induced Asthma/Allergies? (Doctors unsure of diagnosis) After several attacks over 3 weeks and two big attacks, I’ve been put on a 5 day course of 30mg Prednisone along with Clenil 4 times a day and an antihistamine every day. My doctor
