I was reading a report on asthma while sitting in the doctors office after my attack I had, and the doctor said that would be a great idea, they gave me epinephrine the night I had my severe attack to bring me around. I'll have to see if I can find the report on here and I'll send it to the group.

What a

small world …I live in burg, PA….I just got back from

Hershey a few minutes ago.

I go to Penn State

Milton S.

Hershey Medical

Center. I live right

outside of Hershey, PA. I too have 2 nebulizers, the Omron portable

one and a home one. And have been on prednisone too many times to count.

They can't tell me what triggered such a bad attack that night, and I don't

remember much of anything, just feeling like I was dying, and I even said I was

dying then I blacked out. I'm not afraid of going out or anything, the

thing for me was I didn't know what triggered it, so that scared me. They

said it could of been something I ate, or something that just bothered me.

I know my asthma gets a lot worse with my allergies. And with cleaning

products, and of course animals, which I have enough of, but now I have my

" safe " zones in the house where I can go, and they don't bother me

90% of the time anyway, just when I'm having one of those days.

I'm hoping to learn

alot being here, and maybe find something I can ask my doctor for to improve my

asthma.

Question. How

many of you have to carry around an Epi-pen in case you have a severe asthma

attack?

Hi Wanda,

For me the Advair is the only thing that seemed to help my asthma. I started on the mid strength dose and am supposed to be on the strongest dose (500/50), but got some freebies of the 250/50, plus it kind of scares me now to take it after reading the side effects and what happend to me in November. I heard that they want to take it off the market but haven't seen anything else on it.

They said they would like it taken off the market do to the one drug that makes up Advair causing deaths in some people. And after reading the side effects and what happend to me I can see why. But I to have only been helped by Advair so I have such mixed feelings.

I hope like heck they don't take Advair off the market! It's been the ONLY thing that has helped my son. He takes the 500/50, too. I've never heard anything about them taking it off the market. But I will be finding out! LOL

Hope everybody is doing well...and Happy Valentines Day!

I also take Advair 500/50, I haven't heard anything about them

taking it off the market. Hope they don't, I'm finally getting

almost off the pred and do not want to start back with it in high

doses.

Wanda, you make me realise how lucky I am to live in the UK, our health

service has it's problems but I get whatever medicines I need. I pay

for a special prescription card £90 annually( $169 US)and that covers

all medicines I need. Sometimes I have up to 10 items on my

prescription. Today I phoned my primary care doctor to ask her for a

repeat of Spiriva which does seem to suit me, she wrote out the request

which my son took straight to the pharmacy and within 3 hours I had 2

months supply of Spiriva.We all pay a tax each month called National

insurance which has a contribution towards our Health Service, this has

to be better than doing without a medicine that helps you.

Hope you get this sorted out soon. The Advair question is scary,

haven't taken that one but I have had bad experience recently with

Symbicort inhaler which seems to have made me far worse, lost my voice

and had some bad attacks on it, have stopped it and improved

immediately. Just shows no medicine is safe 100 per cent

Regards from June in London

I've also read that the one drug that is causing the problem only

does so if it is not taken with the other one. But I don't know

how true this is. I don't know what problem you had with Advair,

but I'm sure it makes you wonder.
