Palpitations with Atrovent/Spiriva vs Ventolin
However before I do, I'm curious about other people's experiences: I keep hearing about how Atrovent and its relatives are worse than
Ventolin
for heart side effects but I notice much more when I'm taking lots of
Ventolin
that I get horrendous palpitations and also my HR goes a bit mad, even when not

My lung problems and I'm wondering if anyone else has had the operation I had in 2006
Anyway, my breathing has steadily got worse and I've been told I have COPD due to 'scar tissue' - my lung function is not good, my last FEV1 was 45% and I use Seretide 250 plus
Ventolin
as and when.

Calling all asthmatics
I ran on Tuesday evening for the first time in over a month and fully intended running again this afternoon, but my peak flow measurement is still 60 points below my normal despite having used
Ventolin
several times today. If any of you have similar difficulties, how have you learned to manage it?

Whoop doop! W1R3 completed.
I managed this without too much difficulty, and half way round, I realised that I had forgotten to have a puff of my
ventolin
inhaler. I managed without it, which is astonishing. Also, I stepped on the scales this morning, and I'm 4lb lighter. That can't be down to 3 short week 1 runs, surely?

Have you had some Saturday exercise & fresh air today?
2nd best part of today: no
ventolin
! perfect day, almost like old times. I do know I wouldn't have managed 4 hours walking (with the odd mad dash) a few months ago. PR has helped so much with the breathing.

W1R2 things I have learned
This time I used the podcast, slowed down when doing the running bit, as I think I was over ambitious last time, and used my
ventolin
inhaler before I set off. My leg was fine when I was running, and I didn't run out of puff, in fact I managed a brief chat with the postman whilst running!

How much better should I be at end of pred course?
I know that usually I can work fine whilst on pred and am usually much better at end of course so can manage with gradually reducing
ventolin
, whereas this time I'm still needing quite a bit, and any exertion at all is knocking me out and making me very uncomfortable.

Diagnosed with acute bronchitis, and I'm delighted, ecstatic, over the moon and thoroughly thrilled about it!
I had to take myself off to the nearest walk-in clinic the other day, and for a nasty few moments they were talking about nebulisers and possible ambulances :( But after 10 puffs of
ventolin
(10!!! High as a kite!)

How do I carry everything?
However at the weekend I do an outdoor run, and this is what I need to carry: - car key - phone (for tracking app) - iPod (for C25K podcast) -
Ventolin
inhaler (just in case) Last time I put everything in my small bike saddle bag and carried that, but it was awkward to hold.

How do you tell if an exacerbation is improving?
* THEN spontaneously without any
ventolin
after resting, my lungs decided to do the happy dance. It felt easy to breathe. PF was the highest of the day (430=90% personal best) and in fact the highest in 2 months!!!

Struggling to breathe
I am on symbicort 400/12 and
Ventolin
. During the summer despite having an awful lot of stress, I was coping and not dreadfully breathless. I do not like to pester my COPD nurse as I obviously do not have an infection. My inhalers at the moment are utterly useless. Any ideas!!! Viv xxx

Asthma, coughs and colds
I am on the symbicot 200/6 smart regime, monkalukast, phyllocontin 225mg twice daily and I have a
ventolin
inhaler for if I have an attack! I am finding it really hard to inhale my symbicot at the moment it is hurting me to inhale and exhale.

Don't know what to do
We are back frequently using
ventolin
. I don't know who to turn to for support or advice. The doctors on the ward asked for his appointment to be bought forwards but his consultants secretary refused saying they just are fully booked. My GP won't change his meds because of his age (he's only 3).

Frustration
I've had so much
ventolin
I'm shaking but the relief only lasts about 5 minutes. Symptoms aren't severe, I can still walk and talk but my chest just hurts and I'm short of breath sitting down.

Have they got this right?
Given 2 inhalers, Qvar and
ventolin
and sent on my merry way. 2 days after that, my son told me him and his wife expecting their first baby. Wow I needed that as would be my first grandchild. Trust me I have nagged my 3 kids saying when will I be a Grandma. Chris had op eventually and no cancer.

Atrovent inhaler.
Hi My son Thomas is on seretide 125, nedocromil, flixonase and
ventolin
. Since the weather started turning he already has had 1 course of steroids and is now on his first admission of this autumn/winter season. Last year he had quite a few admissions.

Not sure what to do with current exacerbation
Oh well.But I was such a mess the next day that when I went to the clinic to hand in paper work the nurse got worried, arranged an immediate appointment with the doctor, who sent me to the nurses's station for a steroid+
ventolin
inhalation treatment.
