This is quite informative, but do you know why a steroid inhaler would be prescribed for BE or other similar health issues? I wonder what the benefits are. I will check with my Pulmonologist but thought I'd ask here, since you seem to know quite a bit about this. Thank you.

Steroid inhalers are usually prescribed for asthma or COPD, not generally for bronchiectasis only. The benefits are that steroid inhalers reduce inflammation caused by asthma/COPD.
