Hope things ease for you MrsBoods with the use of the Spacer.

Interesting about the Vitamin B12 jabs, glad they're getting onto the case for you though {hug}

[quote="Benny&Co"]Like many of you, I've also used inhalers for many years.

A long time ago when I was prescribed the steroid Becotide, it really irritated the back of my throat.

I switched to Budesonide (Pulmicort) and it's a 'turbohaler' which doesn't give me the same sore throat.


I found this really interesting Bev, as I use Becotide and have had a prickly slightly sore throat for some time. A visit to a consultant who put a camera down the throat showed nothing wrong, but I was told that it is probably years of using inhalers. It has never been suggested that I use something else and I knew of nothing else to suggest it myself. We learn all the time from on here.
I am now a widow and live with my memories.
