What Causes Severe Pain In Upper Chest After Taking Flovent?

Hi. My doctor..allergist..put me on Flovent for wheezing when I awaken from sleep. I have OSA and use coco. I have upper bronchial irritation , inflammation , swollen vocal chords, and allergy symptoms of rhinitis and rough voice. Since Ive been using Flovent the upper chest pain is worse for a few minutes to hour after I use it. Could the Flovent be drying my bronchus more than usual or causing a rebound eggect? I already tend towards dehydration due to hypothyroidism caused by Hashimotos. Thank you. Mary
