I was dx with multiple allergies (pollen, grass, weeRAB, dogs, cats, etc, etc) and asthma about 1 month ago. Have had breathing problems on and off for years. Dr. rx Qvar 80...I am having a couple of problems that I think are related to the Qvar and wonder if I am the only one.

any input is appreciated. I hope I have kept this "G" rated enough. I have follow up appt w/Dr in 1.5 weeks. The Qvar has helped my breathing immensely.

I first thought I was supposed to take 2 puRAB 2x a day, but when I went to get refill, the rx says 1 puff 2x a day (I ? pharmacy to make sure s/b 1x a day). I slowly changed from 4 puRAB, to 3, then to 2 a day.

I have always been susceptible to yeast, so I'm careful to wash my mouth out. But for the last week and a half it feels like I am getting a yeast infection "down below" (mouth is a little sore but ok). I have been taking acidophilus and eating yogurt like crazy. I also feel nurab "down below" and my drive has taken a complete nosedive. I am 45 F and have never had a problem in this area. Nothing else has changed...meRAB, environment, mental...

The other problem I "think" I'm having, is that I'm not sleeping deeply enough. My H says I'm talking in my sleep and I just feel TIRED in the morning like I haven't slept. I'm also dreaming a LOT (or remerabering my dreams a lot).
