well having "seasonal" Asthma, Pneumonia, and Bronchitis..for the ast 4 yrs only in winter months they found it was our 5 yr old furnace...I was inhaling daily..low amounts of carbon monoxide from our furnace every winter, using my nebulizer 3 x a day right next to the floor register where the low amounts of carbon monoxide were coming up..detectors wont pick up low amounts..I saw a lung specialist yesterday, they have me a test to ck my breathing even though I still have Bronchitis, and didnt know they were doing testing that day..I can breathe in no wheezing even breathing out until she says blow hard out..and then it wheezes like crazy She says lets see what helps or what dont and she tried Symbicort but Anthem wont pay for it..so Im on the sister to Symbicort which is Breztri..2 puffs in the morn 2 in the evening..Hopefully I can get off it at some point If I was ok in the spring and summer except for allergic asthma I dont wanna keep taking it..so we will see..I realize it does have some steroid in it..but I refuse to take anymore steroid shots or pills..my weight has grown so much because of all that and not being able to breathe...I cry when I think about it being our furnace...all the meds I have tried and the visits to diff. drs...anyway so far the Breztri I started today seems to work but Istill have mucus from the brochitis but I can breathe..No onto losing weight! I have to..Im 5'2 now 221!!!!! ughhh feel awful look terrible! I will take prayers for strength!

Your inhaler won’t make you gain weight fyi. I’m on Symbicort for over 3 yrs now. Key to the inhaler use a bridge device (they should have given you one) and MAKE sure you rinse your mouth and throat thoroughly! These medications can cause thrush.

Symbicort is like a wonder drug imo. I told my dr I didn’t want to take it forever and he prescribed me singulair which helped so much. Now I don’t use any of it. I want symbicort again just to have on hand for an emergency but my dr said that’s not what’s it for and wouldn’t order me it 😜 I’ve been doing well though for about three years. I do have a rescue inhaler just in case.

Find a free food tracker like Fat secret. com and on Maria Emmerich site she has a free Macro calculator.
