My wheeze is affecting my sleep!

[Roscommonet]

I’m knackered. I’m coming out of the other side of a nasty cold and cough and am wheezy. The doc said it was a virus and gave me a salbutamol inhaler. That helps a bit but it crackles so much the noises disturb me! (I’m v noise sensitive and they sound even louder if I wear earplugs)

Any helpful ideas what to do?

what crackles? your wheeze?

take the inhaler an hour before bed. sleep propped up with some pillows.

My chest crackles. I’m sleeping on the settee mostly, propped up but I really would like to sleep normally, in a bed.

have you tried steam inhalation?
