Trimbow 87/5/9 does anyone here use this?

Hi
Hope you are all well. Just a quick question, does anyone use the Trimbow inhaler?
I have been on it for two weeks and feel much more wheezy than when I was Seretide.
It may just be coincidence, so I would like to know how others are getting on with it
Many thanks
Gill
