Asthma and chest infections

[GrammarTeacher]

I'm on my third round of antibiotics and steroids this autumn term.
Is anyone else really struggling this year? I work in a school with poor ventilation and colleagues who seem allergic to opening windows no matter how stuffy it gets which I suspect doesn't help.

Do you feel ill? Have you lost weight? If so, you may need a CT scan. I had one under these circumstances.

Yes! I have a job where I visit lots of different schools. I seem to have picked up a virus from each of them and am now constantly struggling with cough/asthma symptoms. I have an appointment with the Asthma Nurse tomorrow as her previous recommendations haven't helped at all yet and by the evening I'm coughing lots and really short of breath.

Yes to ill. No to weight loss. Keeping an eye at the minute though.

Sorry to hear you're struggling. Went to asthma nurse myself today and she sent me over to the doctor for more drugs! I'm exhausted.
Taking 40 Year 8s to the panto tomorrow!

@GrammarTeacher oh god, good luck with that!! Hope the medication prescribed helps, it all feels a bit relentless and we aren't even properly into winter yet!

I'm on my second this autumn. There are a lot of viruses around this year. More than usual.
