A bit fed up
In the context of a global pandemic I probably shouldn’t grumble, but I’m a bit down after a phone consultation with my gp this morning. My asthma was diagnosed as severe after a nasty chest infection and (mild) pneumonia around Christmas 2019. Since then I’ve accumulated medications - now on Fostair

Expecting too much when I’m unfit?
Hi hope everyone is ok, happy New Year! I have been on Fostair 100/6 x 2 puffs twice a day for around 3 weeks. Ventolin as my reliever as required. Overall I thought I was doing a bit better, apart from a saga with a smoking oven over Christmas and a cough on a night but nothing too bad. I’ve started

Ventolin restricted
I’m having a bit of battle with my GP surgery’s pharmacy over the amount of ventolin I’m prescribed. I’ve had 13 vent inhalers since March 20 ( I know it’s a lot), however with frequent flare ups & attacks in the past 12 months they’ve been needed. Vent works and I see a difference but often in a position

Difficult breathing out
This might be a silly thing to ask, but I've always found it difficult to breath out completely. It feel like as I'm breathing out, my pipe suddenly closes and I cannot physically push anymore air out.. this only happens when I'm not feeling great and need my ventolin more. Anyone else feel similar?

I am confused what to do after an attack
Happy New Year to you all! I had a sudden attack on Christmas Day, due to stuff burning (candles, roasting a bird in the oven) and suddenly I had an attack. While I have had deteriorations/attacks that I have slid into over a day or two, I have never had a sudden one before. I managed to turn it around

Asthma and Lost Voice!
Has anyone experienced this? Hello all, I am looking for some advice please. I've had asthma for past 4 years but for the past year I am still trying to control it. Having used a number of inhalers I have been changed from Fostair to Trimbone to see if that will help control my asthma (shortness of breath

How do I know which came first?
Hello all, new forum member here. Sorry if this post is a bit long....I'm predicting it may be... :) The question I have, is how do you know if you have anxiety/panic attacks caused by asthma, or does asthma cause the anxiety? I realize that it's a bit of a chicken and egg problem with no easy answer

Newbuild Property
Hi there. We moved into our newbuild property 4wks ago. Due to the endless snagging list, (now a sprradsheet), we cannot put any flooring down. As a result we have a few rugs dotted about the place covering the fireboard floor put down by the builders. Since moving in, I have noticed an increase in the

Sudden asthma attack
Today I have had a new experience. Any attacks, bar mini ones, have always built up over a day or two or three, but today I had that experience that many others know only too well. Due to roasting a bird, lighting candles that were then blown out, and candles that were left burning, it suddenly happened

Ventolin vs Symbicort
I’ve just been prescribed Symbicort instead of Clenil + ventolin. I understand the difference between the contents of the inhalers and when to use them. My question is about the reason for the different effect when using Symbicort as a reliever compared to ventolin. When I’m having a flare, ventolin

Quick question
Hi hope everyone is ok. I just have a quick question ohh actually might be two in one. I’ve been taking Fostair inhaler with spacer for nearly a week now, I think it is helping so far, although it made me shaky the first few times of taking it, and I get a mild tickly throat. I also have ventolin as

A change to my normal Asthma pattern
Hi all Since October when i have been locked down reasonable constantly and living in a centrally heated house, my breathing is far worse - the Clenil is not preventing and the Ventolin not giving its usual relief I also have an itchy face (no rash) and i mention it as the timing is correlated with

Anyone else on Tiotropium - Braitus (via a Zonda inhaler)
Anyone else on Tiotropium - Braitus (via a Zonda inhaler) have been on this just 2 weeks and feel absolutely brilliant - was a bit dubious at first due to listed side effects but am really glad I was finally prescribed it. Lung consultant told me back in Feb he was prescibing it and said he would write

Inhalers
Hi all hope you are ok. Apologies if this has been asked before. I have had an appointment with my asthma nurse yesterday and she has prescribed Fostair 100/6 2 puffs twice a day as I am still waking up coughing in the night and have been coughing on and off over the last few weeks on a night (unsure

Home Nebs 🫁 - they may help improve QoL in severe asthmatics, but are they safe?! Everything you need to know!
Hi everyone. Another infomercial for you all! Hopefully this will be relatively short (but you know me... they never are 😅), and it’ll definitely shorten my next post (add-ons from consultants)! So here we go... Home nebs are almost always frowned upon by consultants (and definitely disapproved of by

Asthma Flare-Up
Hey everyone, Hope that you’re all keeping well. Last month I had an Asthma Flare-Up and was advised to take extra Fostair through the day to help settle it. 4 Weeks on I’ve had a bit of a Cold and think that it’s gone into my Chest. Chest has been tight and Ventolin relieves it but then wears off.

Trimbow
Has anyone had any success using Trimbow inhaler. It really helped me with breathlessness for my COPD but unfortunately it made me feel really nauseous so had to return to old regime if Fostair, Respirimat and Ventolin. Thanks
