I have gained weight mostly around my waist, was previously 26" since I was in high school (until I started the Advair.) Now, the only pants/skirts that fit me are the ones that were previously too big for me. I know it's from the Advair, because I have never had a weight problem in my entire life.
Holy Crap!!! I quit smoking July 5th, 2008 because I was having trouble breathing and we have a new grandson and we knew my son would never let us hold him if we were still smoking. I started taking Advair about a month before that but wasn't that faithful about it since I was also using an inhaler. I have been since mid July. I have gained 20 lbs. in the last month!!!!! I can't believe it!!! I did not eat any differently after I stopped smoking. It dawned on me 2 days ago that maybe it was the Advair or Femara I take. I stopped the Advair 2 days ago and still feel bloated and huge around the stomach. I walk 4 miles a day, did weigh 120 until last month, and am wondering how long it takes to get rid of this side effect.
weight gainers stomach advair skirts holy crap having trouble breathing femara inhaler
