Started taking Advair in 2003. It helped, I stayed on and off of it for the first year. Then found myself growing more reliant. Last month I added Singulair and Flonaise to the mix. Kaboom! Last night I took myself to the Emergency Room! I was sure I was experiencing a heart attack this time. Blood pressure soaring 198/120. Chest, head, jaw and back pain. Indigestion intesifing signaling all the nightmares. Restless, sleepless night anxious days. My voice has changed, sinusitis increasing, even sleep disorders.
I feel like a Macy's Thanksgiving Baloon stuck in the electric wires (inflated and electrified) Over the last 3 years I've gained 50lbs, and started having occasional anxiety attacks. Personal circumstances brain washed me into thinking that I was bringing it all on myself. Yeast infections, yep gotten them and given them.
I'm done! Over! This purple disc is going to kill me~ going to see the allergists this week.

Had been given Flonaise perscription by U.S.Army allergist. Worked ok got bloody nose from it once and a while. used over a period of four years. All of a sudden woke up to the smell of what I thought was acetone aka nail polish remover. This was not the case because we had no nail polish remover in the house. Every thing smelled like acetone, for up to two weeks. I went to see a nurology doctor and had an MRI done worrying about a possible tumor. narrowing things down we concluded it was the Flonaise. I discontinued the drug and still four years later can not smell much of anything. Once in a while I can smell a slight smell for a moment then its gone. I have been using a "Netti Pot and flushing my sinus's out three times a day. I have had no more problems with severe symptoms of rhinitus. Wish I could get my smell back.
