Clenil modulite
Well - my Christmas’s have all come at once!!! Opened a new inhaler - to find they have now put a counter in the inhaler chamber (the brown bit at the back) ... I’m sooooi happy!! Does anyone know if they’ve done the same to the ventolin yet?

Please I need help with my sister's chest pains. What do we do?
Hi, my 13 year old sister was diagnosed with hypertension in September. She used some antihypertensives and spent 2 weeks in the hospital and she got better. She was also advised to start working out because she's morbidly obesed for her age (119kg). She did as the doctors said but one time she started

seretide and spiriva are keeping me awake
i have copd and was given these inhalers to use alongside ventolin if i experience more than the normal difficulty breathing. i had over the past two days had difficulty breathing and took both. now i find it so difficult to sleep, a friend said it's because they contain steroids. is that correct

Constant shortness of breath with good sats.
Recently I have been becoming really short of breath and having great difficulty. Even whilst walking I am getting really breathless. I have lifelong confirmed asthma and recently had an asthma attack about 7 weeks ago now. But the weird thing is my sats are sitting around 96-99% even when i’m struggling

chest tightness
I am new so hello. I have been living with asthma since last January. Late in life diagnosis.

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

Ventolin
Hi Everyone Thank you so much for all your responses, what a fantastic bunch of people we have on here. Sit rep, I don't have enough breath to use powder inhaler, my inhaler is cfc free, and I think that is when I first noticed a difference, however, having now washed my inhalers, seems to be more effective

Ventolin
I've been feeling that my ventolin isn't working like it should, have posted re this. Just opened a new one and read the insert (usually read one a year). Imagine my amazement when it says (remove the canister and wash the plastic once a week). I have always been instructed under no circumstances should

Wasp sting allergy
About 8 years ago I was stung by a wasp (second sting in my life as stung once as a child). Hives all round the sting site took two weeks of daily antihistamines to clear. Had an asthma attack after sting but it didn’t start for about 20 minutes and was resolved by using ventolin inhaler. Told asthma

Sub optimal response to high dose steroids
Montelukast 10mgs, Fostair 100/6 and predinsole 40mgs reducing over 12 weeks, now on 20mgs. I inhaled brick dust 12 weeks ago and haven't been the same. Bronchiolitis. I have had one Consult and going for CT scans, bloods etc. So scared that the 40mgs, 30mgs worked but now on 20mgs wheezy on exhalation

Asthma
My normally very controlled asthma is not good at all. I have had a horrible virus and am struggling to get my asthma back under control. I have doubled my steroid inhaler and taking lots of ventolin. I will go to the gp tomorrow. Any advice for help in the meantime would be appreciated. Thank you in

Pembrolizumab/Keytruda severe side effect
I have NSCLC - I'd felt very optimistic after my first treatment in September ....10 days later, I noticed that where I'd had a rasping noise in my throat for a few months, it had gone, and the following week, noticed that my breathing was improved and needed less ventolin etc to keep the airways open
