Thankyou Donnanomore, my Dr gave me one too and tests show I don't have asthma, but it keeps coming back when I change dosage or brand, so you must be right, thanks again x

If you have 'breathlessness', also consider low iron, (a member on TUK told me this one recently,) as LOW Iron = LOW oxygen in your body. Do you know what your Iron, Ferritin and folate blood levels were dwsmith ?

Thankyou Coastwalker, yes my Iron levels are quite good, i take 1 hemaplex a day for maintenance, it just seems to be coincidental whenever i change dose this happens..?
