breathlessness mostly in the spring (pollen), warm weather and autumn (moisture, leaves falling). I've got COPD, asthma and have 2 heart attacks, polyneuropathy, hyperthyroidism, fibromyalgia. Used Foster but Ventolin provides better relief. Only problem is with going to the toilet.

Worked fine, I could take it up to six times a day. Now I'm on Salbutal, not nearly as effective and has a nasty taste!

After smoking for 43 years I haven’t had a single cigarette for 5 days now, after taking champix for 11 days. My GP sent me to a lung specialist because I couldn’t stop coughing. A scan showed two dark spots on the lungs, nothing serious jet but this could change if I kept smoking. Now I’m smoke free for over 5 days thanks to champix and I feel better already, no more wheezing when lying down.

My breathing problems improved a lot due to Foradil spray. Now it is no longer produced I use Atimos, which is not nearly as effective. I just recently had to stay in hospital, something I was able to prevent with Foradil the last 20 years.

Because there wasn't a direct answer to my problems, this was to treat the symptoms and not preventative. So sometimes I used it more often than prescribed and that unfortunately led to pretty bad palpitations.

I have noticed that I find it a lot more difficult to maintain my weight than before I was on symbicort, since I started taking it, I've put on about 10 kg and I struggle to lose it. Because of the exercise-induced asthma it's difficult to exercise hard.

So I was prescribed a nasal spray that I was supposed to test. This worked really well, however I don't find the spray that Avamys uses particularly nice. It's difficult to dose correctly and you feel as if hardly anything is coming out so then you take an extra dose, a spray is supposed to last about 6 weeks. After about 3 weeks there was nothing coming out. I checked to see if there was still...
