I thought I was losing my mind. Now I know after reading entries on this site what the problem has been. I am a 43 year old male who has suffered with asthma since being a small child. During my early years, I was more less raised in an oxygen tent. I have been taking Advair for the last six months. After the first month, I starting getting horrific cramps in my calves and toes during the night, constant headaches, tightness in the chest, constant stomach pains on both sides, joint pains, sneezing, runny nose, diarrhea, thrush, difficulty in speaking after 2-4 minutes, depression, fatigue, tired all the time, mood swings, pain in my shoulders, neck & back, short term memory, weight gain around the stomach, and tingling sensations down the arms to the fingertips. I just looked at the long, extensive insert that comes with the Advair Diskus, and NOWHERE does it mention anything about side effects, nor did my doctor mention that there were potential side effects. As of today, I have stopped Advair cold turkey! I just spoke to my brother who is a Pharmacist, and he said it would take less than a week for this poison eliminated from my bloodstream. I plan on just going back to my old faithful albuterol. At least this way, I will regain my life back. We as a society have become victimized by the television drenched marketing scam of the drug entities. I have come to the conclusion that there will be a special place in HELL for them. So, say a prayer for them, cuz they're gonna need it!
