I am powerless
I tried Fostair,
Symbicort
, Seretide, Flutiform, Spiriva respimat. Nothing helps me. I have to take ventolin 2-4 times a day. I have shortness of breath and my chest is wheezing. Two days ago I had a meeting with a consultant and he said that he couldn't write anything new for me.

Inhaled steroids and weight gain
But I am wondering if I can blame
symbicort
for weight gain over the decades. I seem to be hungry all the time. Or do I just eat too much and exercise too little ?

Advice please
I have been taking seretide inhaler for sometime now and the hospital nurse changed it to
Symbicort
2 puffs twice daily with the option to take extra doses . I don’t if it’s the new inhaler but my asthma is now getting worse and I am having lots of attacks and coughing up loads more .

Symbicort 400, Warfarin, Lung function test query
He told me he'd put me on
Symbicort
400 inhaler as my airways are "a bit inflamed". Is this a sign of early onset COPD? D-Dimer has dropped from 0.64 to 0.19 so clots are not an issue anymore (apparently).

Peak Flow going down... :(
Since in August 2019 the doc swapped my meds (seretide 250 to
symbicort
80 4.5) everything changed. I went from 500 peak flow to 645. No more phlegm, no infections, a lot of resistance..Excellent improvement of my condition.

SYMBICORT 'CLICK' QUESTION
Dear enquirer, Twist the inhaler once clockwise to hear the 'click' and release one dose of
Symbicort
. You have to twist the inhaler back to the starting point to prepare another dose... then twist clockwise again to hear a second 'click' and release the second dose etc. I hope this helps you.

using Symbicort inhaler
Hi just wondering if it matters whether you get the " click " on the first or second twist of the inhaler? Not really sure why one has to twist twice -presumably the click activates the counter but does the other one open the inhaler or is it all irrelevant!Im only asking because previous inhalers

Asthma meds avoidance
My doctor suggested that I take one puff of
symbicort
before i start exercising, however, I am trying as much as I can to avoid meds especially that I am aware of the long terms side effects of asthma meds!

Symbicort and increased hunger, bizarre dreams?
Strange question but has anyone experienced increased hunger on
symbicort
or any other steroid inhaler. Since I've been on it I've been really hungry and keep getting the munchies 🤣😂. Not going to do my waistline any good (already got bigger during lockdown lol).

SOB but peak flow doesn't change and asthma tests don't show anything severe
They also gave me a
Symbicort
Inhaler, which I currently not use. I used it two times where it didn't seem to work all that well, it seemed to calm me down though. The doctors said that the placebo effect might also play into that.

Can Symbicort 200/6 (2 puffs, 3x per day) cause you to loose your voice?
I wash my mouth out after every use, but im loosing my voice. Very difficult to make my words heard and I wondered if this could be linked? Thank you.

Maintenance without Steroid
However, I started retaking
Symbicort
100/6 one puff twice daily. Only doing this for 8 weeks and my eye pressure has increased to 25 and 19. (I am told 22 is the safe level). What can I do?

Anyone have experience with symbicort? Being swapped to it as apparently they are trying to reduce salbutamol use?
I've just had a review for my asthma and they are changing me to
symbicort
2 puffs twice a day and I'm now to use it as my reliever too?
