Glynis,

Glad to see, hope it works. You still have the link is PM'd you, so you know the possible side effects. There unfortunately is no way of knowing what if any you will get. Even if you do get some, like cramps, then they usually go away after a month.

I don't recall if you have a spacer, but that sort of dose you really should use one, if helps you get more of the drug into your lungs, has the ability to reduce the chances of getting sore throat.

hope you see the benefits in a few days.

Chris
