Advair Diskus - Has anybody who has been on Advair for a long time found that as time goes on it?

I was diagnosed by a Hawaiian doctor while I was on vacation. When I got back to the states, my PCP told me that could not be the case. I didn't fit the profile for it. Nonetheless, I was the last child of 6 kids, was a premature baby, and smoked until I was 40. I lived in an immaculate home (Mom was OCD) and I had no recollection of impure drinking water or anything like that. I know that England has a higher percentage of people with the disease than the US. I haven't been able to determine how I got it, but I do know that I had pneumonia in my 40's or 50's. Other than that, there is not much that the doctors say about it. The good thing about it is that with vaccines, our children and grandchildren will probably not get it since childhood diseases are at a minimum nowadays. My suggestion is to try to use Mucinex to get rid of the mucus so you don't get chronic bronchitis. Mucus deteriorates the bronchial tubes. Best wishes in getting your mucus under control.
I also take Advair and don't really trust it since I have read some negative stuff about it. It is keeping me stable so I guess it is good, but I sure wish I could do without all these asthma meds. The list keeps growing and the bruises keep showing up from all the meds.
If you are wheezing, use your Albuterol. If that doesn't work, you may need a short time on Prednisone. That helps a great deal. Just like everyone else, it is trial and error for us. We just try all these meds until something clicks. I would love to go back to the day that aspirin was the only thing I took and that was rare.
