Has it helped with your symptoms

[Hidden in reply to Mi33y]

I have only been on it since 22/10/15 so I can't really say much about it sorry x

[Mi33y]

About the same time as me so I can't comment but was wondering if anyone had taken it for a longer period. Thanks for replying

Been on it for about 12 months, not done me any good , I have now been taken off it and put back on symbicourt.

Though everyone is different, what suits one will not suit another......

[Mi33y in reply to etch45]

Thank you for replying. Are you any better on the symbicourt.mi have been changed 3 or 4 times over the last few months but my breathing has not improved. So mixed up gone from seritide to symbicourt to fostair and now Relvar Ellipta.

I've not heard of your inhaler either. Do you suffer from COPD ?

[Mi33y]

Copd nurse visited me this morning and has commenced me on my standby course of steroids as she thinks I have inflammation in the lungs. Hopefully this will resolve my current problem

[SquirrelsHolt]

Never heard of this. Is it a new one or should I have it, as I have severe COPD, amongst other odds and sods ?

[Mi33y]

I think this inhaler quite new but don't know enough about it to comment. Yes I do have severe Copd. Only taken it for a week and breathing not been so good. Copd nurse advised me to go back on seritide if I felt more comfortable with that. Will keep you informed
