7) What should I bring?

What should I bring?

  • If you have a reliever inhaler remember to take it with you.
  • If you have any other medicine which you have been advised to carry with you, take them too, for example a GTN (glycerol trinitrate) angina spray.
  • If you normally use a walking aid then bring that with you too.
  • If you use a hand held fan to help with your breathlessness at home, bring that along.
  • You may want to bring along a bottle of water or a cold drink.

What should I wear?

  • Wear loose fitting clothing that will let you move freely.
  • Consider wearing layers of clothing as you will get warmer as you exercise.
  • Wear flat, comfortable shoes or trainers.
