I am a white blonde male, age 43 of about 240 pounds who has always had seasonal allergies and I have taken shots for mold, pollen, dust, etc., off and on for a few years here and there. A few years ago, I guess after the benefits of the last round of shots wore off, I went back to the allergist, I got a cortizone? booster and was turned on to Claritin...and I never looked back. Oh, I would have some rough days or weeks but I could tough it out. Well, within say the last 6 months I developed asthma it appears. I got checked out for allergies again and plan on getting shots again (dust mites, pollen, ragweed, dog, cat) and getting mite 'encasements'. In the meantime, my allergist prescribed Advair 250 diskus and I took my first doze in office. Well, I distinctly recall that same evening being noticeably more irritable and the next day found that 'weakness in the upper chest feeling' and found that where I was not coughing up phlemn (sp?), now I was and it had a bit of yellow (infection) color. I decided right then to stop and to do some research and found this website. I think in this case, I am going to listen to my body and how I feel, and take the experiences of others and NOT use this medicine. Thanks all of you who took the time to post!
