hey i suffer from anxiety so everytime i feel i cant breathe i take my asthma inhaler but i dont know if this is asthma attacks or not i woke up and i felt i could not take a full breathe properly i took my inhaler 3 times before bed because i had the same sensation before going to sleep i felt phelm was stuck but i could not get it out as i have not got a powerful cough to get it out .

i woke up with a slight wheeze this morning so i took my inhaler twice and it helped get abit of phelm up and the wheeze went away but im left with the feeling of a wheeze without one ?

also my throat feels like im been strangled where my adams apple would be if i was a man .

i get a thump thump kinda feeling that effects my breathing like something is constricting and letting go down my throat i have also woken with white dry lips which i have never suffered with dry lips until recently and this is when my breathing has not been that good i have not had a asthma check for a long time and last time i went they gave me the brown and blue inhaler but i have only been taking the blue as i ran out of brown years ago .

does this sound like ashtma or not ?

thankyou

      i know there not toys i had been diagnoised with asthma in 2010 and doctors also know im taking my inhaler still even though they have not checked it for ages .

      they also giv me inhalers when i have chest infections even though they havent checked for it for too long i was asking if it sounded like a asthma attack because i wasnt too sure .

      thanks for your reply

      Hi, Doesnt sound like asthma. seems like the inhaler is affecting your heart, this is likely with Ventilan, the grey one. I have never been given inhalers for chest infections, just antibiotics - I have a lifetime of asthma and chest infections -- get yourself to a doctor -- .
