How long to get over chronic (1 month) SOB?

Kathy, the Airsupra is a rescue inhaler I believe...so you use it only when needed...not daily maintenance?
I can see why they would recommend a longer lasting maintenance product in Symbicort to prevent attacks, but would have expected to have had less coughing/mucus with it. I am on it again so may continue and see if it reduces mucus production once more.
I haven't tried an air filter...haven't needed it at home, but will keep that in mind if this situation continues...praying that it won't.
Many thanks.

Yes, I know. I was using it as a rescue inhalant despite being told by my local Pulmonologist that I should use it once per day. My NJH ID doctor told me I should be using the inhalant daily since my CRP and eosinophils were high on last blood draw-which I believe was allergy related since I was staying in an Airbnb that allowed cats and dogs plus had a window AC. I'm going to message my Pulmonologist and discuss further and get follow up blood work. THE NJH Pulmonologist wanted me on Anora (sp?) but my insurance didn't cover-$500/month.
