    I too have had asthma for 2 years being an adult its harder than having it growing up.

    I however could not get on with the Forstair tho gave me terrible indegestion.

    do you have any other allergies as i have hayfever and find this time of year the hardest to cope.

      Normally allergies go hand in hand with asthma, worth getting tested.
