You know I know I have COPD but I've noticed that if I use my inhalers it feels like I get worse I feel like I can breathe better without them is that bad or good I look forward to anybody's opinion

If you feel that the inhalers are making it harder to breathe for you, contact your doctor. I am on Symbicort twice a day and it helps a lot. I feel it immediately. I also use albuterol when I get short of breath or before daily exercise. My pulmonologist told me that sometimes the corticosteroids (Symbicort, etc.) can make breathing harder. He told me if I have trouble breathing after using my Symbicort, to use the albuterol to help. Contact your doctor and tell him/her the problem and hopefully he/she will help correct the situation. If not, find another doctor. Preferably a pulmonologist. Take care and God Bless.
