I have been on prednisone more than off since the beginning of July due to cough, chest discomfort and dyspnea. The cough is
productive with the sputum being thick and white. I had blood flecks
in it twice during my hospitalization but none since. My FEV1 is down 11% from when I left the hospital.
I am currenty on 40mg of prednisone a day, Dulera (200/5), Qvar (80mcg), Theophylline CR (just starting it again), singulair, albuterol PRN (2-3x a day), mucinex, zyrtec, rhinocorft, and achiphex.
