New diagnosis, working on getting meds right
I suspect this is likely to be a work-in-progress forever as the goalposts keep moving, but I thought I'd ask anyway. I've been on Qvar 50 2 puffs twice a day since mid-May, and I finally got to actually see the respiratory nurse for the first time since March, and she's increased it to 3 puffs twice

Asthma attack?
Ok, I feel a bit daft asking this question but...Two weeks ago I had problems when walking back to my car from work both nights. Because of covid a lot of the doors are locked in the hospital before my shift ends and I had a longer walk than usual and mostly uphill. I got seriously breathless and tight

Silly asthma!!!
I have my new running trainers sat waiting-unworn. I can't wait to get out but my chest has other ideas! After several days of struggling with my asthma, I've been left weak and wheezy. Have to wait till Monday for my new inhaler so till then I darent risk a run. Never had this itching to get out

Week 4 repeated Day 2
I finally did it! Managed to run for the full 16 minutes today. So strange since I haven’t been able to get past 12 minutes before today. I wanted to stop many times but managed the first 5 minute segment well and then really struggled during the last 5 minute segment and the small hernia on my left

Is it really asthma?
I'm just about to go up on my Fostair from 100 to 200 after struggling to breathe during the last 3 weeks, but I'm starting to wonder if it's really asthma I have. When I'm having a an attack, I don't respond to salbutamol or prednisolone and I never wheeze, yet sometimes I feel like I'm suffocating/

asthma inhaler interaction with prednisone?
just adding to my previous post, yesterday I started using an asthma inhaler, (called Symbicort, active ingredients budesonide and fumaterol fumarate dihydrate ) prescribed for a long term cough, hopefully to be cleared up after two weeks of the inhaler. Could this have any bearing on the reappearance

Acid Reflux from Symbicort
recently diagnosed with asthma. Began with Symbicort DPI, but suffered a number of side effects. Have changed to Seritide inhaler, but am left with acid reflux side effect from Symbicort. Has anyone experienced something similar? Has the change in meds resulted in the reflux dissipating over time? Any

Peak flow
Hello there Can I ask if there’s a way to get health professionals to take your symptoms seriously even if your peak flow is your best? Mine is at my best yet I’m SOB, yawning loads (stops if I use reliever), coughing and my breathing is noticeable to other family members. It’s definitely not anxiety

Just a little rant!
Hi all, after what was a good 12 weeks for me with no admissions - the longest i had stayed at home since October was 2 weeks, everything feels like it’s going backwards! I have had 2 admissions in the last 4 weeks, one was requiring ITU for 2 nights, I was discharged on Wednesday this week, and again

I feel fantastic!!
Week 4 run 1 completed today. Absolutely gobsmacked that I managed it. Slowed my pace right down and tried to really focus on my breath throughout. Discovered that breaking the runs down into mini targets (eg run to the farm gate, now run to the brown car) made it feel more manageable and slightly less

Breathing suffering
Hi everyone, I haven’t posted here before. I’m 30, female, have asthma (usually mild) and suffering with breathing problems over the last few months to be honest. I was diagnosed in March this year with Pleurisy and really since then my breathing has been going downhill. I feel wheezy almost all

Ethical Salbutamol Supplier Sought
I’d like to get a spare inhaler for my partner. She is prescribed Salbutamol. In an ideal world the seller would contribute some of the sale proceeds to the work of Asthma Uk Does such a seller exist? If so I’d appreciate their contact details. Thanks

Feeling a bit down
I’m feeling a bit down and sorry for myself ...lol, do you ever have those days? I’m trying to fill out PIP form and you know when you’re writing your worst day scenario. Frustrated too cos I’m still struggling to breathe with the step up of my inhalers although my Peak flow is improving. I’m not bad

Feeling frustrated
Just wanting to air my frustration really. For background - I have asthma (since childhood) now with small airways disease (last year spirometry showed obstruction in small airways and CT scan showed mucus plugging). I had a nasty haemaphilus infection in March (I have a persistent productive cough

Inconsistant spirometry?
So I have been for my spirometry test but they refused to do reversibility as my results were to inconsistant. Apparently I couldn't empty my lungs enough and my results were variable. I was really struggling as I hadn't had my inhaler and the thunderstorms were triggering me. She acted really annoyed

Adrenal Insufficiency
Hi I have been into hospital for further blood tests to monitor adrenal function and my body is not making cortisol so sadly I need the hydrocortisone dose. I don’t know if this is the same for all in this situation. I may even need to have my doses increased. The steroid is holding my Vasculitis too

Last run for a couple of weeks 😭
I’m not going to stress over it ( she says secretly stressing) but I have my steroid injection this afternoon and I have been quietly hoping that this will be the Holy Grail that will sort my hip pain out for good. As the day has got nearer I have had to keep telling myself it might not!! And not to
