Might you need a different or an additional inhaler?

What about Duoneb for awhile? I think you may have done this for awhile? Maybe do it again for awhile?


Are you inhaling steroids? I do. Unsure of what you have for inhalers.

Yea, it could cause you some serious challenges if you get back into any form of steroids other than inhaled. Inhaled steroids can cause issues, too, especially if already affected by oral steroids.




Yeah, doing everything except more steroids atm.

I’m trying not to actually change current inhaler as it normal works extremely well. The new ones out are much stronger , which they gave me sample of Anoro for a week which probably helped me. But I don’t want to “ stay “ on something stronger, as then I’d only have to take more steroids if that one won’t be enough on the next flare that could be in months or a year(s) from now.

I only want to do that on a prn basis , but I need to maybe do a months worth?

To me Asthma like Bipolar is a balancing act.

I feel like a circus performer with the plates all spinning and some wobbling ready to fall and crash . Dammit! lol
