Hello,

I’m in neighbouring county to Yorkshire but have experienced ’must take oral steroid tablets according to strict doctor's protocol’ re unexpected symptoms. I’m surprised because I’m normally better when the weather is warm and dry, like it is in my neck of the woods atm

However I’ve also noticed that many plants in my garden are behaving in a rather irrational way. For instance have a Magnolia tree that is now flowering for the second time this year, plus a winter Cherry that is also flowering five months before it should.

Could it be the pollen, global warming or just our weird lungs? ( When in doubt I always blame the weather)

Although I Hate - with a capital H – oral steroids - I can’t stand even more a prospect of hospital admission and just general incapacity. So have started taking those ……. tablets. Again.

Check with your doc ASAP Jillywilly to be on the safe side.

Jilly,

You need to follow your protocall if you have one, or go see your gp or if bad tonight call out of hours doctor. If your unable to breathe and chest is tight you should probably go to A&E.

People on here cannot give medical advice as they cannot see you and are not medically trained. You need to ask a doctor.
