Advair HFA and bad dreams

My 11 year old had severe asthma but has seemed to grow out out of it. Our doctor had him evaluated by a pulminary expert to access his asthma. My son had a 30% oxygen exchange in the tiny capilaries of the lungs. I was so horrified. He had not had an asthma attack in 2 years. He immediately went on Advair...and our family life has become horrible. He is angry...he is defiant. He has bad dreams. He doesn't feel good. He now weighs 135 lb! The kids tease him. We have him enrolled in sports to excersize his lungs and get his weight down. He feels bad because he's not as fast as the other kids who are 70-80 lbs. He is always tired...and always confused. The Pulminary guy spends 6 minutes with us...scares us...gives our son a drug that is turning our life upside down. We went to his pediatirician and after 2 year he is now off Advair. This is a new development. I am seeing anger and depression now from him. When you guys went off the Advair, was there a period where your body had to balance itself back? I hope this anger/depression are is just a stepping stone from Advair to a happy life.

My 7 year old son started advair 4-30-03. His first dose was given about 2 hours before bedtime... After the first dose my son went from quiet and calm to all of a sudden he was off the wall.. Hyper,acting nasty, and started itching all over his body. When he was in bed sleeping he kept flinging himself out of bed and said he had bad dreams. He is still acting funny this morning . Needless to say, hes not getting anymore advair.I have also found out that advair isnt approved for children under the age of 13.His asthma is mild, but has a bit more problems than he normally does. Going to try sinulair next.... I hope it works.
