Advair HFA and brilliant

I started Advair in November 2006; within days I started bruising on the inside of the thighs, calves and tricep area. One bruise developed in my sleep (!) that was about 6 in. long and 3 in. wide on the inside thigh. It was brilliant red and blue! But I chalked it up to getting accustomed to the new drug. Well about 5 months into this I noticed I could no longer sing or hold a note for any length of time without losing total breath. In the morning I would call out for one of my animals and nothing would come out of my mouth! Alarmed I stopped the Advair for about a week. The brusing stopped; my voice returned. I decided to try Advair again and yes, the bruising returned in the same areas and the voice issues started back. NOW I've been diagnosed with anemia in just 5 short months! Nothing changed except using Advair and Fluctonase. I'm now off Advair by my own choosing, my voice is returning, the bruises are gone but I still have to get my iron count up. Has anyone had anemic issues using this drug?

No side effect that I've noted. For me, works probably twice as well as any of the others, including Singular, Pulmicort, etc. (that bronchodilator in addition to the steroid is brilliant!) I have some tiredness, stuffiness, etc. off and on, but attribute that much more to the underlying allergies, asthma, etc. rather than the medication - certainly better on the meds than without. Does wonders for my actual breathing.
