Asthma
"I was changed to Breo almost 3 months ago, after being on Advair 100/50 for 14 years. My Dr changed it, because he felt that Breo would be less steroid in my body. Well, &quot;If it ain&#039;t broke, don&#039;t fix it.&quot; My breathing got worse, and it is a struggle to take a deep breath. I had to use my rescue inhaler 2-3 times a day, this past month, when with Advair, I&#039;d only use it 1-2 times ayear. I constantly felt like someone was choking me, or that my lungs wouldn&#039;t inflate fully, &amp; I&#039;d have heart palpitations when I&#039;d lay down, &amp; would wake me from sleep. A recent CT scan showed bibasilar atelectasis, whereas another done prior to Breo this year, didn&#039;t show that finding. I started back on my Advair today. I hope it still works for me now."
