    John,

    We are not Drs or Nurses on this site, but patients ourselves. That said I'm not clear about your current problem. I'm not a chemist (pharmacist) either and don't know all of the meds and their effects.

    Please explain your situation in a more conversational style if you would please.

    I'd like to understand and be of some help if its possible. I say this with all the best friendly concern.

    All the Best

    Hi I too am not sure what you are asking! The most important figure is your lung function (FEV1). You said you are mild though. x
