Question: can the butrans ciii patch cause foot swelling within a few days of starting the 10mcg/hour patch and causes some upper respitory issues, such as wheezing or whistling noises, even for a while after you stop taking it?

I have never had Asthma. I just wondered if the runny nose, upper respitory coughing and noisemaking like whistling is from a sinus infection, head cold or ordinary upper respitory infection, because it seemed to come, after I stopped the patch as my Dr. said? Do seem to have, at night, feeling of sinus pressure somewhat, but when I lay down, will wake up with some noises, when I exhale, like whistling type, but not when I inhale. Dr. ordered Zpak but is doing nothing for any of the upper respitory issues. There a lot of seasonal allergies here in XXXXXXX which I finding out, but this just seemed to come on after patch removal, because my lower legs and feet were swelling. Nose is not clogged now, but a few days back was just plain dripping. Can the Butrans patch cause the upper respitory problems that seemed to have came out of nowhere? I have cats, but never had any allergies to them. No apparent fever now, but sometimes sweat off and on now. When I get to coughing, sometimes something comes up, sometimes it doesn't. Better in the daytime. Lying down does seem to bring it on more noticably!

I KNOW THE UPPER RESPIRATORY INFECTION IS NOT FROM THE BUTRANS! WAS ONLY ASKING ABOUT THE SWELLING WITH THE BUTRANS PAIN PATCH. THE RESPIRATORY THING WAS MY 2ND QUESTION! I HAVE NO FEVER, BUT AM SEEING MY DR. IN 2 DAYS. THE ZPAC DOESN'T AND NEVER HAS DONE ANYTHING FOR ME! MY SISTER HAD THIS SI,ILAR THING TO, AND SHE WAS GIVEN DOXYCYCLINE AND ABOUT 5 DAYS OF PREDNISONE. IS THIS SOMETHING NEW GOING AROUND? HER DR. SAID IT IS AND SOMETIMES IT TAKES YOU REHAVING THE SYMPTOMS TWICE, BEFORE YOU GET RID OF IT, WHICH CAN BE SEVERAL WEEKS! SHE IS NOW GETTING BETTER, SINCE THEY CHANGED HER ANTIBIOTIC! I MYSELF HAVE ALWAYS DONE BETTER ON V-CILLIN K!
