TCM
A MyCOPDTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi everyone. I’m new here, in process of being diagnosed for chronic bronchitis.
I see info online for traditional Chinese medicine, but can find no info on where to find these medicines or thoughts from people who have tried them. I’m reading about something called Yufeining (YFN) and Bufei Yishen Formula. Has anyone ever tried or heard of these? Would welcome any info, thanks!

Airochamber Sometimes Sings When Taking Medicine
A MyCOPDTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have 3 inhalers and I use an aero chamber to take the medicine.
The breztri and ventolin are fine, but the atrovent sometimes ‘sings’ when I inhale the medication. Is there a particular reason why? Too fast, too slow?

Any Experiences With Trelegy Ellipta?
A MyCOPDTeam Member asked a question 💭

Has anyone used Trelegy Ellipta? I have tried Anoro which didn't work and currently using Symbicort which isn't working well either. In fact if I use Ipratropium/Albuterol 2X a day via Nebulizer it works better than Symicort...my plan will not cover Spiriva (Medicare D)...so, any experiences with Trelegy?
