Cavitary lesion and wall thickness ?

This is a question to the MAC/Bronchi group: has anyone tried to stop using their Symbicort for any length of time to see if it really makes a difference? I know this is best decided by ones doctor, but I just read in the little book on Bronchiectasis by Pecaut that the use of steroids on a regular basis wrecks havoc with the immune system by suppressing it. I wrote awhile ago that taking the 2 puffs twice a day really does not make me cough much. I have been on the Symbicort now for about 3 years. Why would anyone want a suppressed immune system?! Also, as an aside, I did not get my Connect today.. does this sometimes happen with any of you? Thank you, Pamela
