Some success with breathing excercises and new meds.
I have also been having adverse reactions to both
Symbicort
and Seretide, my doctor has changed me from a combined inhaler to two seperate inhalers a steroid (Alvesco) and a LABA (Onbrez). As soon as I took the Onbrez I knew we were onto something.

Warning 1 Asthma as a child, mild after 8/9 Warning 2 PFTs and inhalers in 1995 Age 26 Warning 3 PFTs and
Symbicort
prescribed in 2002 Age 32 It took me another year to give up after 2002, only when I noticed that the
Symbicort
wasn't as effective.

400, nasal spray- Dymista, ) I am just so lethargic, having a shower really takes it out of me & I need my blue inhaler a couple of times to

What do you take for Chronic Bronchitis
Symbicort
which used to work a treat makes me feel worse and Advair has me coughing up lots of phlegm. Becotide seems to work a little but isn't a silver bullet.

Symbicort
Hello Yes I had the same feelings but mine started more or less straight away. Go and get checked you can never be to sure. They took me off it and reverted to previous medication. The other week I tried Fostair and that was worse.

getting people to understand asthma
Although I have tried to explain to mother she refuses to stop using the chemicals which are causing inflammation to my asthma and the constant use of my blue inhaler (i also take daily
symbicort
), I am having this argument now with her on almost a daily basis, i just can't get her to understand even

Seebri and Onbrez
I was on Sprivia which I was fine with by
Symbicort
always made my chest feel so tight. I'm not sure if it was the steroid that did that or not but most of the time didn't take it because of that. Thank you.

Copd treatments
I do take
Symbicort
400 - 4 or 5 times a day (which I don't think makes any difference to my breathing). Also I have Tiotropium bromide (Spiriva) which I take once a day, a Ventolin inhaler which I take every time I move from my chair.

What to do about hayfever
My asthma has (thankfully) remained in control (I'm currently taking
symbicort
200/6 2 puffs twice daily, ventolin before exercise and as needed and montelukast 10mg daily) My question is if I wanted to try antihistamines for what appears to be hayfever, is it normal to just buy them over the counter

Problem with DuoResp Spiromax inhaler
I usually have
Symbicort
but apparently this is the same drug but cheaper for my surgery (which has gone over its drugs budget). The delivery mechanism is different than
Symbicort
but I took advice from the pharmacist and thought it wouldn't be a problem.

Stomach upset Symbicort??
I have been changed to
Symbicort
which did not appear to have my normal problems BUT after a couple of days I have had the worst stomach upset that I can remember. Coincidence? Having to get up many times in the night is bad enough but its worse as I use a CPAP.

Clear chest
I'm just at a loss, because my chest is clear other than giving me the spacer and just keeping me on preds and increasing my
symbicort
to the max the Drs don't seem to be able to do anything else. But I'm not improving.

I take steroids 7.5mg daily, ventolin and
Symbicort
400 twice a day, plus I have a lot of other medical problems which require medication too. Thanks for reading, any insight would be greatly received. Jan

No asthma after all?
Yes, I did feel slight and very short adrenalin rushes on some mornings the moment I realized that I did need another dose of
symbicort
(not a good idea to drive a car then or being 1 hour away from any sign of civilization).
