Plants in bedroom
Having recently refurbished the bedroom, I removed the carpet and layed laminate flooring. I then added "air purifying " plants, snake plant, Aloa Vera, and a peace Lilly. My chest and breathing feel a whole lot better in the morning, I used to reach straight for the ventolin, but not any more.

Severe asthma and lots of attacks (? Allergy related), any advice during wait to see consultant?
My meds were changed in October last year (simbicort to fostair) as I was taking ventolin every day, and my chest really didn't like fostair. I had a really fast, severe attack (pretty much ok to totally unable to breathe in about 15 minutes) in December, with similar symptoms in Feb and March - akin

Exercise induced asthma?
My 12 year old is breathless on minimal exercise - this has been deteriorating over the past year. Previously he was physically fit and energetic. He's being treated for asthma- on monteleukast (also has allergies - nuts/ grass/pollen), and is on a combined steroid/ long acting beta agonist. He doesn't

Bad asthma but good SATS. A&E experience
Had a bad attack yesterday and my daughter, a nurse (now community, formerly A&E staff nurse) took me to A&E at 11:30 am. I’m a retired nurse Although I’ve been asthmatic from childhood, it’s usually well managed and this is only the third bad attack that’s needed hospital treatment and the first time

So frustrated
So, I’ve had asthma since I was about 15 (am now 40 something!) have been really struggling to control my symptoms and the clenil I take makes my mouth so sore I have to periodically stop taking it. When I stop taking it I then have to use my ventolin at least 10 times a day and during the night. Asthma

Confused......
Confused? Yep. This is further to my post 4 days ago. So after seeing the Asthma Nurse on Friday I have taken the course of Prednisalone and am on Montelukast. I had another appointment yesterday as a follow up. Update is that the Pred haven’t kicked in, peak flow has improved, still coughing, but chest

Frustrated by hospital experience
I'm new here so please be kind! I'm pretty sure that the experience of the last few days won't surprise many, but just how hopeless can a Hospital be in looking after an asthma patient? The early hours of Sunday morning saw a very breathless me whizzing off under blue lights and sirens to the local DGH

Reaction to Thunderstorm
Last night there was a thunderstorm where I live around 7pm last night. I was sitting on my bed looking out of the window looking at the storm developing. So I closed the wundows,bedroom door and turned on my air purfier. I felt the pressure of the storm building as my chest started to tightness in

They were right it is Asthma....
Briefly , I was diagnosed last June, but felt absolutely fine by November, so I convinced myself that the chest infection had caused all of my problems, it was actually the antibiotics plus the inhalers that ‘cured’ me, so I stopped using the inhalers and I have been absolutely fine. We went on a flight

Cold/allergy/asthma?
Last week I started with what I thought was a cold, blocked up nose, chesty cough, but I wonder now as the blocked nose comes and goes. I do however now have a trickle down my throat which is pretty gross. Chesty cough is productive but doesn't look infected. Coinciding with that, I've been feeling

Introduction; New here, and to asthma... Kind of! Relieved in one sense and scared on the other.
Hi everyone, I'm here after quite a revelation over the past few weeks, which unfortunately, like so much in life is incredibly complicated. I was heavily abused from birth onwards in many forms, by different people so all of this gets confusing. I was literally told that I was attention seeking and

Doctor visit today - confused??
Hi all, since diagnosis 6 weeks ago with COPD and put on Spiriva I have felt worse shortness of breath and had high pulse rate with palpitations. New doctor in my gp surgery and took an appointment with him as he had a slot before my own gp. He still didn’t go into stages and said not very bad but muttered
