Should I wait or see Gp now?
I have got a cold and since this started my peak flow has dropped to around 70%. I have occasionally got a tight chest but ventolin helps relieve it. Should I wait an see how it goes, or given it takes forever to see the Gp, book something in just incase it gets worse?

Question to help a friend.
Hello everyone with COPD Had a message from a friend living in Gosport today saying her COPD was playing up - they have told her she has the lungs of a 90 year old. She only has a ventolin inhaler - I told her she could up the dose of that if necessary but she does not have a preventative inhaler.

I need some advice from people using home nebulisers
Hey, Just wondering if anyone has nebulisers at home? Have they helped you? I've always been under the impression that Drs don't like home nebulisers for asthmatics as if your bad enough to need nebulisers you should be seeking medical attention anyway. However in the last few months my asthma has

Just a rant really!
Just need a rant really - I am currently really struggling as my asthma (allergy/hayfever triggered) has come back after stopping breastfeeding my third little monkey.

Has Anyone used or got a Salt Lamp
I purchased a salt lamp two weeks ago after doing a bit of research into them on the internet and finding that a lot of people with respiratory problems got some relief from them, also the fact that I use a pc for 8 hours a day too it states that the lamp helps to remove the positive ions from the air

Spiriva
Is anyone else using Spiriva? My GP put me Breo Ellipta, but took me off cause it was trying my throat really bad. She then put me on Spiriva Handihaler. Anyone have side effects from this? I also us Ventolin (MDI) which I'm not liking cause I think it needs a spacer.

1 Year Anniversary
Well it's a year since that terrible chest infection cleared up and 14 months since diagnosis of COPD ( CT Showed significant emphysema) Dr reckoned chronic bronchitis as well. I've been taking Seebri and Carbosisteine and ventolin which I rarely use. I'm feeling great and no mucus or cough. I can

Newbie struggling
Hi, I'm new and, as the title suggests, struggling. I first remember experiencing breathlessness as a late teen and it has gradually gotten worse over the years. I would get a right chest and struggle to get deep breaths but no coughing or wheezing. I was first diadiagnosed 3 years ago after a particularly
