Next appt still total suckage , finish oral steroids, drop Anoro , increase Symbicort to 3 times a day. Ok next appt still junk lungs let’s add Breo , even stronger inhaler along with Symbicort. 10 days later still junk lungs, add additional 10 days of oral steroids. Finished prednisone Thursday ... Friday , productive cough infection brewing, today , productive cough but clear, no fever at all. I’m not taking my Humira shot as that can interfere with fighting infection. Meanwhile for 6 weeks im Nebulizing 4 times a day that keeps my heart rate 130-146 resting.
I’m calling my Doctor in the morning. Monday’s are always super busy as we all know everyone gets sick over the weekend..... so I’ll likely wait to go in until Tuesday , I mean hell what’s another day at this point , yeah?
I can’t even describe the full amount of suckiness this is causing me.

It is nuts this is still going on. I hope the doctors are able to help you tomorrow. You've been battling so hard for so long. You need a break!
