New and Saying Hello after COVID
Hello everyone. I'm pretty new so I thought I would say a quick hello. I am here because I got COVID in late October and had a pretty rough time with it. I am still suffering with labored breathing. The challenge is more pulling air into my lungs than breathlessness. During the acute infection,

RASHES WITH RA
Hi, I managed to see the nurse at my GP practice yesterday. I am wondering if any one else on Methotrexate, has vascular dermatitis or vascular eczema on their lower legs and ankles. It comprises of tiny red spots which are very sore and follow the line of the tiny capillaries just under the skin

Symbicort wasn't working...my lungs still feel tightness. Dr. Prescribes Advair 250 discus.
Hi everyone and thank you for reading because I'm a bit at a loss. As my post title says, the doctor prescribed Advair, but the pharmacy gave me Wixela Inhub, fluticasone propionate and salmeterol inhalation powder 250 mcg/ 50 mcg. First of all, is this the same? Anyone here know if these 2 medications

Reaction to inhalers
Here we go again... another reaction to a new inhaler to try! Using Spiriva and have eye irritation and needed to see the eye doctor. He put me on an antihistamine eye drop and comfort drops.

Symbicort to Advair Diskus?
I've been on Symbicort 160/4.5 for almost 2 years for asthma. I just got new health insurance and they will only approve Advair Diskus. Should I be worried about it not working as well or getting sick from switching? Does anyone have any experience or advice? Thank you!

Need help understanding living with asthma.
Hi folks, I have been living with asthma for only about a year and a half after having an asthma attack that landed me in ICU for 8 days. I am okay now and have not had any incidents since. But the last year and a half has been problematic and confusing because I am constantly feeling like my airways

Asthma?
I was diagnosed with asthma less than two years ago. I was dealing with a cough that wouldn't go away and wheezing and really having a hard time breathing, even when I wasn't active. I was prescribed advair, singular, cough medicine with antihistamine, and claritin, and or zrytec. It wasn't much help

Spiolto Respimat Users?
Hey ho, any Spiolto / Stiolto Respimat users here? Just got switched off Symbicort to it. Symbicort and Advair both caused awful and intense large muscle cramps (back, abs, thighs), to the point I could not sleep. When I would go off them or reduce them a day or two the cramps go away, only to come

Leg cramp from combination inhaler?
Hi everyone, I'm sorry if this question has already been asked,but I was just put on a combination inhaler for the first time (Advair) since I wasn't responding to a doubled dose of inhaled steroids (and one week of prednisone tablets didn't calm things down either, only when I was on them). I've been

Inhalers
I used Advair (or Symbicort) for 20 years until I finally started getting lung infections. Quit on my own and it cleared up right away. I was using Spiriva also and am now ready to try going without. I am having the eye problems associated with it. These inhalers can be a Godsend for awhile but

Rather than hold things in, i wanted to tell what happened to me on Friday. I had a doctor appt that morning ( a 4 week f/u ad my kidney function had been low likely due to being on a diuretic and i was taken off and having blood rechecked.) i love my doctor but always feel so anxious going to the doc

Excema on my eyes and mouth
I’ve had asthma all my life. Breo and Advair helped, but the Excema I had as a child for few years behind the knees and inside my arms came back at age 62. It’s come back on my eyes and all around my mouth, it’s debilitating. I am a working actress and can no longer accept auditions for fear I can’t

Confused and concerned
My story is a bit of a long one. It all started out at the beginning of the year when I went snowboarding in temperatures close to 0 degrees. Before we went on this trip, I was trying to recover from a cold that I was having difficulty shaking. I went to the doctor and the only thing he could prescribe
