Advair & black box warning

[Guest guest]

There has been so much controversy over Advair I do not know what to

make of it. I will admit that the warning has me scared to take it,

although my drs and some things I have read have downplayed the risks.

> I'm thankful that some of our group are getting better.  I had a few

thoughts I wanted to share.  You need to avoid milk when having

problems with mucus. Some of my family are singers and sang in

different choirs.  Before a concert they were all warned to stay away

from Milk because it causes mucus.

>   This morning on my home page msn.com there was an article " Drugs

that Doctors won't take "   Advair was one of them.  Prilosec and Nexium

was also on that list. They also explain why.   Why do they give us

these meds if they are so harmful? 

>   I have learned a lot from this group about all phases of Asthma

and thankful for you.  We need to keep telling each other about our

med and etc.
