Not a question just a statment really, why the hell would you take a drug that they only THINK does something and has worse side affects than the illness it is supposed to help.

You make a good point. I don’t have any medical knowledge so I have to rely on what the doctors say. I live within an hour drive from some of the best Medical Institutions in the world therefore I can listen do my own research and make my decisions. It makes me so sad that we have people in our country that don’t have access to any kind of medical help and couldn’t afford the exorbitant price of Medicare if they had access to a doctor.
You can always choose not to take a medication, but if you have COPD and are having difficulty breathing, I'd suggest you give it a try before closing the door completely. You might find that it helps a lot. There's plenty of scientific evidence that Advair has good efficacy and does make a difference for many people.
Hi, I am on a new medicine and all of my body aches, I don't know if it is from my lung infection or the new meds. I swear we are experimental specimens.
I read what you said about advair, what you said about it at the beginning sounded great, I have to admit it that I was about to phone my doctor's,it really gave me hope only for a few seconds, then came the side affects all I could say was WOW, you say it could ease the COPD,or kill you, also you never mention the stats on success or failure, do you know,
that would be helpful, honesty is a good policy especially when it's related to life or death don't you agree
I don't trust doctors either. Most of them just don't give a shit! They're in it for the money!
