@grammyvictoria They don’t say emphysema either . Trelegy does have steroids . Some daily inhalers don’t. The side effect for me is extremely dry skin . After showers I peel profusely . My new diet I started yesterday , but this morning I had way less phlegm . It is a custom diet - I have tendancys for diverticulitis and have in the past had a severe attack of C Diff after colon surgery . It is for hydration and food . The hydration part is 95 ounces of water a day . After 6 pm it is just sips to wet one’s mouth . That lets me have restful sleep and not have to get up 3 times to p.. the food part for me is to avoid co2 buildup , not irritate diverticulitis , do not feed C Diff ( avoid fructose) .
Protect arthritic joints . ( no prepared foods) - no gluten bread . Well cooked low fructose vegetables . Lung safe. Carrots , spinach , green beans . Yellow squash cooked soft , white potatoes or sweet potatoes . no skins . Omg shall I go on … strictly limited to 1/2 cup a day fruits . Strawberries . Cantalope or honeydew. No nuts or seeds No. Orb or grains- no prepared meats . No dairy products they thicken and harden existing lung mucus. No high fructose corn syrup or high fructose fruits Avoid apples , pears and watermelon. I was also given recipes . Well 3 so far - all with almond flour . Pancakes , pecan breaded lean chicken breast. And a recipe for a 90 second mug bread in the microwave . ( almond flour) too .
