ProAir HFA and medication

ive only been using the proair inhaler for a few days and my chest pains are increasing to the point where it hurts to even breathe. im sick also, so i cant cough or anything. it hurts so bad that i cant lay down to sleep because the pain is worse when i lay down. i don't know why. its 430am and im up because of the pain this inhaler is causing me. i recommend it not be given to patients.

My local pharmacies have switched to dispensing only ProAir HFA inhalers in place of the usual albuterol inhalers by Warrick, per the new law concerning the ozone layer. Am experiencing severe breathing problems because of the switch. Was under cotrol with the old type for over ten years, it was a life-saver. The new type inhaler doesn't work for me. Even after adjusting to the slightly different feel and mastering a slightly different user technique, it fails to ease my breathing. Peak flow meter stays around 250. Why drastically alter a medication for non-medical reasons? I am reading on internet forums that I am not alone; thousands of users are having problems with the new HFA inhalers. I can't walk to the store now, I can't go up & down stairs, I can't carry on a sustained conversation. ???? I appeal to the powers that be to make our old inhalers available to us again. Let the marketplace decide which type to buy. This is a frightening failure and we need help.
