Hi there, @lisalucier, @barbharps very sorry for the late reply.
Yes, the Trelagy was the cause of the bladder pain, etc., and the pulmonologist I was seeing was not helping me, so I found a new pulmonologist that I really like and is much more aggressive in treating my asthma. We went over my history and did some tests and based on the outcomes (it seems I also have bronchiectasis) she put me on Advair HFA 230-21 mcg. It has helped a lot, but I'm still getting breakthroughs. The next step is getting me on Dupixent that I will start on in the next week or two. I'm hopeful this will work, but I'm a little concerned about possible side effects, so I'll just have to see how it goes.

@still4writin, unfortunately I don't think there are any easily affordable inhalers. I've lost count of the various ones I've been on. They either did not work for me or presented side effects that did not resolve. Good luck with finding one that work for you.

@labloverfl I noticed you mentioned “bronchiectasis” as a diagnosis that you have. I believe there is a group &/or discussion that pertains to this. You might find it interesting and helpful. The volunteer mentor is @sueinmn.
