Hi, @ammarr12334 - I wanted to check in and see how things are going with your asthma. I also wanted to know how the fluticasone furoate (Avamys) is working for you for postnasal drip?

Hi Lisa, my asthma has gotten better and I’ve gone from using inhalers twice a day, every day to maybe once a day, every 2-3 days. Although I haven’t asked my doctor about my height I did get slightly taller (~5’6.5 to 5’7) not as much as I had hoped for but oh well. To finish the Avamys has worked really well and my postnasal drip has been fixed completely and I take it 2 times in each nostril every couple days as well.
