I've had polyps removed and was prescribed Rhinocort. Shortly after I began experiencing major anxiety & panic attack that were terrifying. I stopped taking it & told my doctor who basically told me these side effects were impossible. He then put me on Nasonex. Within a very short time the symptoms returned and now include difficulty breathing properly. It constantly feels as though I can't get enough air. I've stopped taking it (about 4 days off now) and my panic attacks seen to be reducing. My left eye hasn't stopped twitching yet and I still feel uncomfortable when breathing but I think it's getting better. It makes me angry that doctor's really ignore this & make you feel like an idiot, but it has to be related.

There are many natural products/alternatives for health issues . . instead of taking drugs that cause side effects . . .unfortunately, most drs. push drugs, since that's all they know.
