[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 444112, member: 7083"] I expected her to put me on Advair when she put me on antibiotics, as she has in the past. She did oral steroids, which was ok with me because I was flaring so hard anyway. And they helped a lot. She doesn't want to put me on them now, as she's afraid it will mask the problem for the pulmonologist. The inhaler I have is albuterol, and the nebulizer came today. She mentioned sarcoidosis because of all of my other health issues - she's always thinking "systemic" with me. I don't know what a peak flow is, but google is my friend. :) I had a chest CT in October (for an unrelated reason), and I have the disc, so I'm taking that. I don't know if he'll want to redo it, though. I hope not. I've had so much radiation that I should be glowing. [/QUOTE]
