    I was diagnosed with pan colitis (whole bowel&backpassage) I was given Mezzavent. steroids & cannister no matter how I tried contents of container went everywhere but right place, I asked hubby  to try spray which he did pointing it away from himself. He ended up like santa claus. I phoned nurse & left message saying  was having problem I got a message back saying if you dont know where to put it---- dont do it  I was 63 at the time think I knew where it was supposed to go. I still have a laugh about this. soz Barbara looks like you got youself a faulty one good luck xx

      Thanks Carroline. Another good laugh. Sometimes you think nothing has gone in. you can feel it when it goes in cant you. So you do another then another, then you worry thinking has it gone in, and I didn't feel it.and then you worryTHAT YOU HAVE OVERDOSED!!!!

      How are you coping now with yours. Are you better now. Iwent for a meal in a posh restaurant and I had to go to the loo 5 times during my meal.

      I felt terribly embaresed as I had to pass a lot of tables . Then people started looking at me as if to say  Why does she keep going to the loo. even the men behind the bar were looking at me odd.I bet I won't be going in there again hahah!!! xx
