Struggling with asthma at night time
Does everyone struggle with the feeling of going to bed when struggling with asthma. I feel that I can do something about in the day time but the is nothing more scary than being woken up with asthma

Asthma problems
Is anyone else experiencing bad asthma especially recently with COVID-19 going on. I have found since this has all come about my asthma has become worse day by day. Two weeks ago I had an asthma attack and had to go into hospital, each day it’s been on and off all throughout the day and today I’ve woken

Please read: shielding queries
This is today's update from Asthma UK with regarding to shielding or not, NHS letters and severe asthma. https://www.asthma.org.uk/advice/triggers/coronavirus-covid-19/ I was going to say that, while the initial thing from the government mentioned severe asthma as an example, those deemed to be in

Self-isolation. Need some advice.
Hello guys, I know you won't have the answers but I'm just looking for a bit of advice as everyone I've spoken to about it hasn't really got any answers. I've suffered with asthma since I was 4 (I'm 32 now) and as 4 years ago I was taken off of my Preventer inhaler because they deemed my asthma to be

Mild asthma sufferers ..
Hi, I am a mild asthma sufferer usually only needing to take my blue ventolin inhaler occasionally (pollen, dust, cats, exercise etc ) and was confused as to whether I should start taking my brown steroid inhaler at this time. After reading forums I did so and have been doing for the last two weeks.

High FeNO levels
Hi, At my last asthma checkup my FeNO level was 55, where as previously it had been 35. I take symbicort 400/12 2 puffs twice daily and Spiriva 2 puffs once daily, so wondering why my levels would have increased? My asthma nurse said it could be because I was having an asthma flare up and my airways

Awful coronavirus anxiety
Hi everyone, I’m a 21 year old American with mild asthma and diagnosed anxiety (specifically health anxiety). Even though my asthma isn’t bad, I’ve been so terrified by the coronavirus that I’m experiencing physical symptoms— nauseous, tight chest, the works. I think I have a slight illness right now

Asthma anxiety
Anyone have any advice for managing Asthma attack anxiety? My Asthma is brought on by allergies, and until January I never took my asthma diagnosis seriously because it barely ever effected me, but in January I had a very traumatic time where I caught a bad sick bug and started having some pretty bad

Increased awareness of your asthma?
Is anyone else finding they're increasingly aware of their asthma right now/finding they're reaching for their inhaler a bit more often even though they generally feel well? I'm fairly mildly asthmatic but have had a history of health anxiety, so reckon the combo is making me sub-consciously scan for

Sever asthma yes or no ?
Hi I contacted the government support line to get clarity on the criteria they are using for severe Asthma . Please be aware that their criteria for severe asthma is more stringent than that on the Asthma U.K. website . The minimal requirement for re diving a letter is high dose steroid inhaler plus

Asthma and Coronovirus
Hi, I’m 18 and have asthma for many years, but just got diagnosed 8 months ago. This Coronavirus is really scaring me, It’s getting me depressed and giving me anxiety. I stay at home but my family members go outside like nothing matters, they just say I’m overreacting, they don’t understand the stress

Category of asthma
Hi, can anyone tell me if by taking one puff of Symbicort 200, morning and one puff at night, what level of asthma is this classed as? No other medication and asthma seems fine overall. Weighing up what category I would fall in

Asthma
Hi I just wondered if anyone else feels like they can’t take deep breaths but they’re still breathing? I don’t know if this is due to anxiety of all the stress going on right now or it’s my asthma flaring up? I’m not wheezing when I breath in though? Anyone feel the same?

Coronavirus and Asthma
Hi everyone, I’m young (21) and have had asthma my entire life. It was bad when I was very young, but in my teenage years it just became mild. Besides asthma (and anxiety) I am otherwise healthy. I was wondering how someone like me would fare with coronavirus if I got it.

Thank You Asthma UK!
I’m not sure about any of you but the information, guidelines and content put out by Asthma UK this weekend has been amazing! Each day has brought further clarity as to what we need to be doing and who needs to do it. I’m so incredibly impressed but also massively thankful! It’s abundantly clear
