Chesty cough
For the last week I've been feeling unwell, runny nose, dizzy, achey etc. Steadily my peak flow had been dropping, I've got a chesty cough and I feel constantly short of breath. My pb peak flow is 570 but today I got only 350 but it wasn't really a true measurement as it stays me coughing in trying

Aspergillus Nodule shrinking.
Hello all, Thought I ought to let you know that at my last appointment at the National Aspergillosis Centre at University Hospital of South Manchester,. My X-Ray showed that the nodule found just over a year ago is shrinking even more and is barely noticeable now. Not bad for 10 months on Itraconazole

Confusing spirometry results!
Hey everyone! I know I posted about my case a few weeks ago, but I didn't get very many answers. I have a very confusing case. I show both severe COPD and also a severe restrictive lung dysfunction. Everything in my results points to stage 3 COPD except for my FEV1/FVC ratio. My FEV1/FVC ratio is 113

tight chest
Tight chest, good peak flow and just finished seven day course of prednisilone. I'm a bit confused. Just finished seven day course of pred. Made such a big difference to my breathing. Very tired though as they render me unable to sleep. That last day or so my chest has felt very tight but when I

Am I Missing Something?
Hi All I'm pretty new to this thyroid thing, but I've had asthma for a silly amount of time and have kept a record of my peak flow and medications for years, firstly on paper and then on an Android App. I thought I'd try to find an app that would let me keep a record of my test results, what medication

WTF! Completely floored after seeing the consultant today
I've just come back from the GP/Consultant today. I'm pretty angry to say the least-having seen the consultant previously and him saying he's not certain but is thinking I have brittle asthma, he's now saying he doesn't think i'm asthmatic, doesn't have any idea what my presentation is about or what

Mucus
A while back I asked about coughing up mucus after taking ventoline, and I got a bunch of great answers, but now I have a follow-up question. Does coughing up mucus when taking the reliever before exercise indicate that my asthma is undertreated? Because why else would my lungs be filled with gunk? Or

could she have missed a chest infection?
Hi, I've been struggling for a few weeks now, asthma symptoms being a pain, but also coughing up gross phlegm, achey, exhausted, sweaty and feel like my lungs are stuffed full of ground glass. I went to see the asthma nurse Last week who put me on 40mg of prednisolone but said no crackling so no anti-biotics

Rant
Hi All, I just though I'd share my scary encounter with my respiratory team. Saw the cons on Friday, she rocked up an hour late and was in a foul mood, tried to tell her I was unwell, (big morning dips, loads of Ventolin and chest pain), was told I should probably be on oral pred, but she was too busy

New to Relvar - any advice on possible cough side effect?
Hello, I'm 45 and I've had cough variant asthma for a few years. Previously, I've only had symptoms triggered by a chest infection (not colds). Very recently, I've now got pollen as a trigger I've had very mild hay fever since my 30s, but it's never caused asthma symptoms. I was taking 200mcg clenil

Good news
Had My Check Up On Thurs With The Respiratory sister, re joining the exercise class, well hahaha, she won't accept me, she says I am too well. Couldn't do spirometry test due to recent retina surgery, so did peak flow meter and blew 420. Oxygen sat is 99%. B.P normal. Pulse normal. She sent me home
