Will Never Take Symbicort Again!

Updated

I was put on Symbicort for bronchial spasms...I had taken it before and had worse trouble breathing, nausea and awful headaches...I thought maybe I just hadn't given it a chance...so when my doctor put me back on it I agreed to try again...it's worse than before...I now have cold like symptoms, headaches, numbness in my feet/hands, hoarseness and the worst sore throat ever! I also have trouble breathing that I didn't have before I started Symbicort...how long will it take to get out of my system? I only used it for a few days...

My mother-in-law experienced the same issues, though she did it try it for almost 2 years, before she gave up. But about every 6 to 8 weeks, she'd get severe wheezing and develop a respiratory infection, then she'd have to take an antibiotic and 5 days of Prednisone.

If you research the full detailed side effects as provided by the FDA, it has been known to cause such issues. Mom's doctor took her off of it a few days ago and she's been feeling better ever since, said her new inhalers are working wonderfully. Thus, I encourage anyone who's had such problems to see their respective doctors and discuss getting off of it.

Is there anything I can help with? What were you guys switched to?
