Close COPD & Emphysema
Hello, I am a 46 year old woman in the end stages of lung disease..I also have ms.I have just rec. my updates etc. having a hard time with it all just now..I do have many passions .always looking for the positive side of every situation. I am very close with my three grown children..(All boys) 2 are married and I adore my daughter inlaws..I have 4 and 1/2 lol grandbabies who are my heart and joy..Just taking it one day, one step, one breath at a time and trying to make each and every one count.
Treatments
- Advair Not Working
- Gawd this one was okay but lawd is gives me thrush in my mouth after only a few days and after brushing and using mouthwash after each dose....My experience with this was terrible and I did try it more then once with the same reaction each and every time..
- Albuterol Somewhat Helpful
- As things have progressed it just doesn't seem to give the instant relief it once did.
- Atrovent Somewhat Helpful
- same as above
- Combivent Somewhat Helpful
- as things progressed it just doesn't seem to give the instant relief it once did.
- Duoneb Too Soon to Tell
- My specialist wants me to stop this duoneb due to the change in my other meds. Now he wants me to use the albuterol only.
- Pulmicort Working / Worked
- This did help me an awful lot in the earlier stages..Very few side effects. They now started me on symbicort. This one is brand new to me so I'll let you know
- Spiriva Too Soon to Tell
- Also just began using this.
- Symbicort Too Soon to Tell
