I posted May 10. Since then, I have continued taking Advair, but am now almost completely SIDE EFFECT FREE!
The trick is to remove what doesn't make it to your lungs. DON'T SWALLOW ANY! Rinse and gargle five times.:
1,2 - Gargle lightly and deeply 2x to get it off your voice box. Spit each time.
3,4 - Gargle strongly 2x to get it off the sides of your throat. Spit each time.
5 - Rinse mouth thoroughly and spit
After 1 week, heartburn and hoarseness were gone. After two weeks now, I have regained some voice control. (It may never be perfect with Advair because he bronchodilator may also be relaxing the muscles around the voice box.)
It's likely that a lot of the long-term symptoms like bruising could be from prolonged swallowing/ingestion of the stuff.
If Advair can control my asthma with no side effects, then I don't care about addiction. Have to take something daily in any case.
Please, anyone who tries the gargling, share whay you have learned!!!
