I was on Advair for 3 months. I woke up one morning feeling as if I had "instant arthritis". Terrible pain, in joints, muscles and bone. I could barely walk and finally decided that the only thing I was doing differently was taking Advair (the only medication I was taking at all). I spoke with a friend who told me that the same thing had happened to HER friend, until she went off Advair. I have since gone online and found many other people that this has happened to.. After getting off it.. the pain began to lessen after about 2 weeks. However, if I do anything strenous (like picking up a bag of groceries!) it worsens again. One woman wrote that it took 6 months to get over the pain... I don't know how long she was on the Advair or what dosage she used however). But if this has happened to you after taking Advair... tell your doctor ~ and get off it!
