So I was diagnosed with emphysema this week and they put me on Symbicort and Spriva. Now since I’ve been taking the Symbicort it doesn’t help my breathing, to me it makes it worst. My heart rate goes up and I feel sharp chest pains. The Spiriva seems to do the strick. Should I get a new inhaler prescribed or is my copd getting worst?
