Hi guys I'm new on here, I've had asthma all my life I'm now 47 over the last few years my Asthma seem to have changed from being dry and tight to being really phlegmy mucusy I've been taking seretide for about 14 years and I'm on the highest dose I'm now also on montelukast and Avamys nasal spray after 2 months of the new drugs I think it's finally working that or the weather has changed not really sure! Has anyone else experienced a similar thing with their asthma?

Asthma does change as you go through life for example I'm 30 and my asthma was dormant for 7 years and has come back with a vengeance (much worse than it was)
