			<title>Stiolto Respimat being recommended to switch from Symbicort for asthma diagnosis?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[
I GP is recommending this change to the new medication. The theory, I think, was to improve my breathing without the use of steroids. I am pre-diabetic, and the steroids were believed to be raising my a1c levels. 

The info on the internet says NOT for treatment of asthma, and it appears that this medication also elevates a1c levels. So what should I do?

			<description><![CDATA[
Was having asthma attack after a food reactions. My lungs started to hurt and burn. I had the worst sore throat ever I thought it was strep it wasn&#039;t. WAs a side effect of oral thrush. Been through all the antifungal medication they could prescribed and it is not working. Since, his is from a chemical hw do you treat it? Does it go away on it&#039;s own? Or is this something just have to deal with the spots, tingling numb lips, sore tongue and odd couch once in a while?

			<title>Symbicort inhaler and budesonide (Pulmicort) nebulizer?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[
My doctor has prescribed Symbicort 160/4.5 1 puff twice a day. When I get sick, I am to do 2 puffs twice a day as well as budesonide and levalbuterol nebulizers 2-4 times a day as needed. I asked about budesonide ingredient in the Symbicort plus using it as a nebulizer and was told it was fine-that I needed the extra steroid as I always end up with bronchitis. Am I crazy to think this is too much budesonide to be uses concurrently?
