Suggest Treatment For Severe Dizziness, Diarrhea And Headache

Hi, I have the following conditions: GERD, IBS, Type 2, Asthma, High Blood Pressure, sleep apnea (use a CPAP) and chronic sinusitis (CPAP, even with humidifier drys me out). I saw my asthma dr and had Advir prescribe for increase coughing but since then it has gotten worse, sometimes its hard to take and hold my breath enough to use the Advir. Now I am feeling dizzy, I have more heart burn and diarrhea that burns, fatigue, some headache. Not sure why things are getting worse. Advir usually helps a lot.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Advair is a drug that contains two medications (a steroid and a reliever) and is quite effective in treating asthma.
If you are not better with it, I would advise you to check the technique you administer the drug. If you are strictly following the instructions as it is explained in the pamphlet in the box of the medication then you will need to see your doctor.

In this case, a step up in the treatment of asthma is needed. The doctor may need to adjust your treatment or add new drugs to obtain better control of asthma.

I hope this answers your query.
I remain at your disposal for further medical assistance.

Regards,
Dr. Antoneta Zotaj
