Hi all
Have two inhalers plus a nebuliser for my COPD. However my Dr also gives me a prescription for Steroids & Antibiotics for me to hold in readiness for an infection. Just as well my wife has a terrible cough right now. Got antibiotics for her too. Just hoping it won't come to me

Hello Peter, glad you are on board and happy to have another male type individual to help keep these ladies in line. Really we have a wonderful family and they have all helped me immensely. I have managed my COPD and Asthma for many yrs with similar med's. I use 500/50 Advair, Spiriva, Xeponex Rescue, Singular daily and keep Prednisone and Anti biotics on hand for emergency. There is a basket full of information here so if we can help in any way jump right in.
Blessings to you and your house, Ken

Sadly I also succumbed to the cold/cough. Over the cold but still have a productive cough. On antibiotics. Have some steroids but reluctant to use as last time they prompted diabetes and blood sugar levels of 41. Will be seeing GP shortly to sort it out. Wife now on second course of antibiotics. Hope we both get better soon, sailing to the Caribbean in 5 weeks

Healing Prayers for you and your wife. So far I've dodged that one. I'm glad your coughs are productive at least.
What part of the country are you in? (No reason I'm asking, I'm just being a tad nosy lol). I'm in Illinois, west of Chicago.

Hope you and your wife are feeling better. I haven't had any of that yet and hope I can stay away from all of it. My prayers are with you and your wife!
