TRIMBOW????YOUR EXPÉRIENCE invited
Hi I am now living in France from U.K. I have been on sera tide 500 x 2 puffs a day for years. For my asthma. I also have mild bronchiectasis. My lung capacity has gradually reduced over recent years. Peak flow used to be 250 but recently below 180. My doctor in France said seratide was old fashioned

I was just wondering if anyone else is finding problems breathing. I’ve used my ventolin and it was better for a minute or two but now it’s difficult to breathe again. My peak flow I’snt too bad. It’s about 400.

Using Vitalograph asma-1 monitor
Good morning all!* *feeling slightly delirious after 8 steroids and 4 hours sleep last night due to my asthma... :) I recently bought a Vitalograph asma-1 monitor as like many of you I find that my usual peak flow doesn't really pick up on how bad my asthma gets - had a bad week with the warm weather

Hello, i am 29 years old and I am starting to get breathless very often, especially in spring and summer. In fact i always struggled a bit more in hot weather to perform or breath properly but i thought it was normal kind of thing?? My doctor gave me a peak flow meter and i noticed that my readings were

Peak Flow going down... :(
The last year and a half has been spectacular for me and my asthma. Since in August 2019 the doc swapped my meds (seretide 250 to symbicort 80 4.5) everything changed. I went from 500 peak flow to 645. No more phlegm, no infections, a lot of resistance..Excellent improvement of my condition. But 2 weeks

Yellow Zone
So, I'll just preface this by saying my GP does know this and I'm waiting for a referral. Basically, I'm constantly going into the yellow zone of my Peak Flow daily, often multiple times a day. How can this stop happening? I'm currently taking Fostair 200/6 2 puffs twice a day and an additional 2 puffs

SOB but peak flow doesn't change and asthma tests don't show anything severe
Hi, I'm kind of desperate right now and thought that you guys might have some ideas regarding my problems. Roughly 3 Weeks ago I started having trouble of breath from time to time. In my case inhaling feels much worse than exhaling. Also my throat starts feeling harder when I have SOB. I don't have

Pain in ribs on my back and peak flow is down
Since last night, I have had pain in my ribs on my back where my chest is and I've checked my peak flow tonight and it's down from 350 to around 230. My ribs are also sore on my front as well. I am unsure on whether this is my asthma trying to flare up or what. I can't talk to my doctor's as they don't

Should I reduce or stop my running? - low peak flow and low oximetry readings recently & after running
I've recently been running more and more in preparation for a half marathon. However, my peak flow has dropped and I've been taking more ventolin and more becotide inhalors. I'm male 5'7'' 44yo and my good peak flow is about 450 but the best I've blown in the last year is about 430. Good for me is

Help! Asthma getting out of control?!?!
Hi everyone! I have eosinophilic asthma and was discharged by my consultant last year and to go back to him if things get out of control again. Here’s my dilemma...’out of control’ to my consultant means a low peak flow and the need to use steroids. But I have been coughing for the last two months...

Going back to seretide?
I’ve just been asked in for my annual review and want to ask the nurse if I can go back to seretide. I came off it a few years ago when there was some research about increased risk of pneumonia as I have mild bronchiectasis. I’ve tried quite a few alternatives and have been on flutiform for a couple

Breathlessness
I’ve had a call from my cardiologist who has said my echo came back with good results. (Triple Bypass and Mitral Valve Repair 18 months ago) Diagnosed with Heart Failure weeks ago. Slight MV leak). My peak flow readings are around 600. The Cardiologist said that he thought my breathlessness is likely
