With the Symbicort you're getting a Long Acting Beta Agonist (LABA) and an inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) and the Atrovent is a Short Acting Beta Agonist (SABA). With the Anoro, you'll get the LABA and a Long Acting Muscarinic Agent (LAMA, in the same class of med as Spiriva). What you might miss is the ICS. My guess is that your doc wants to see if you can manage with one med instead of two and once a day (all good things for you if they work). In your shoes, I would give it a try and see what happens. If it doesn't work, you can always go back to the tried and true. What I would suggest is that if/when your doc wants to change your meds, you ask for a good explanation of why and what she expects to happen with this change. Remind her that this is your decision and you'd like enough information to be able to make an informed decision.
