Hi,
could you tell me what medication it was? I almost died during a breathing attack and am now diagnozed with Astma... never had Astma until I was prescibed Vicodin. Now I am starting to do some research on breathing problems and taking Hydrocodin, Vicodin, OxyCottin, Roxicodone, Morphine..
If you like you can email me directly to ***@****
I had similar sounding symptoms for while and was give asthma inhalers but it wasn't asthma. It was a food alelrgy causing excessive mucous in the respiritory areas - post nasal drip and further down. Since avoid wheat/gluten and soy I've returned tp 100% normal. I also did some breathing retraing to learn to diaphragm breathe properly instead of chest breathing. Chest pains from coughing and over inflating the chest have gone. good luck.
Peak flow readings do not measure what is going on in the small airways. It is very possible to have chest tightness with reduced flow in the small airways and have a normal peak flow reading. I would speak to your doctor about temporarily increasing the frequency of your Advair
