COPD medicines
Every tooth in my head aches. Maybe I have outlived my teeth. Is there something in these puffers, usual stuff. Ventolin. Salbutamol. Braitus. Also my tongue has swollen and I have little ulcers around my lips. Something not quite right. It sneaks up on you

Should Ventolin inhalers have counters?
Hello. Just wondering why my Ventolin inhalers never have a counter, when from reading many different inhalers do. Is this just down to cost? Seems very stingy to me. I end up with several inhalers in different states of full//empty.

Feeling very Foolish
I did my peak flow on Saturday morning and it was 450 usual 500. Same evening,then Sundays and Monday morning. Then my voice at lunchtime started disappearing and chest got a little tight?! Peak flow still 450. Rang and got a telephone consultation and was hoping offered a nurse practitioner appointment

Peakflow - improvement? Response to Spiromax
Hope you're all having good day :-) You've all been so helpful as I've been going through the am I/aren't I asthmatic phase... So, over the last month I've had an inconclusive spirometry test (GP says it's because I was well on the day), and clear chest x-rays. Went back to the GP last week fully expecting

Should I get off the steroids
Hi all. Have emphysema and asthma. Been told it's still mild only recently after spirometry. Then had a chat with the gp about inhalers as I was using ventolin several times a day. I had seen that some asthma sufferers were on seritide without it giving them the shakes as some of the other combi inhalers

Spirometry and diagnosis confused.
Hi. I am a little confused and could do use some thoughts from people in the know. A year or so ago I had a ct scan for a heart issue which showed emphysema. My GP wasn't too bothered and said its nothing to worry about. You have given up the smoking now so that's the main thing. I was also on asthma

Hospital discharge... what are your ‘requirements’?
So I’m back in hospital again but my Cons has made me realised that every hosp has different requirements regarding discharge (love her - she’s fab and really on the ball about asthma and all it’s quirks) . I have been admitted ‘regularly’ in 3 local hosps since 2015 when I became severe/brittle. (I’

Hello Ive been using montelucast for 5mths and i have to say i rarely think of my ventolin now.... However, i have been kept awake by paralysing pins and needles starting from my middle left finger and spreading to all other fingers and tracks up my left arm to my spine.

Unsupportive family
Hi. My wife and my (adult) kids all seem to think asthma is no big deal and that there is nothing wrong with me. It didn't help when they heard a recent chest xray was fine and no further action was needed. I'm on max doses of Flutiform, have seebri and ventolin and I'm told severe/difficult to control

Where can I buy ventolin nebuliser solution online? thank you for reading
Hello, my first post to this group. I am planning to buy a nebulizer for my 66 year old brother who has asthma. He is normally fit and well otherwise. GP gives him steroids regularly to control his mainly night time asthma. I have found a nebuliser 'Omron NE-C28P Compressor Nebuliser' Could anyone

Late nights don't pay. (Humorous poem.)
I went to bed quite late last night, I don't know why that was. I didn't have so much to do Perhaps it was because The ointments and inhalers, The pills and tablets too, Meant that going up to bed Is so much work to do. And so I put it off and off Until it gets so late, I cannot keep my eyes open And

Quick question re: personal best PFM reading
Good morning! Just a quick (& hopefully easy!) question..... when you say your “personal best” in terms of peak flow readings, does that include after reliever pump? For example (& I am only new to asthma) my peak flow readings range from 280 to 350 over the last 4 weeks, but after ventolin I’ve read

Hospital again
So after two day of increased ventolin use i am once again in a&e. Hoping this will be a quick visit rather than the 3 week stay it was last time. 😳

Badly controlled asthma help?
Hi all, am new to this site but I was hoping someone could give me some advice/ relate to my experience? I never struggled with asthma at all as a child (despite it running in my family) and was only diagnosed in January 2017 following a severe chest infection. From January 2017- September(ish) 2018

Newly diagnosed, 42 year old confused!
Hi! First post so please be gentle! I am a 42 yr old female (5'2"), and was diagnosed with asthma last month after a bout of a nasty cold which wouldn't shift from my chest. I run a lot (30 miles a week plus) and seem to be particularly bad for a few days following a long run (in fact my diagnosis came
