I would be interested to hear what your ID doctor has to say about inhaler and bone loss.
My pulmonologist said I quote "the inhaler only stays in the lungs, it doesn't even go down". He said that he has a patient who has been on an inhaler for 60 years. I hope he is right.
I recently heard from 2 people, one said she has been using it for 26 years, one has been on for 20 years. They didn't have symptoms. Maybe different people react to the inhaler differently.
Take care!

I also will be interested it what your doctor says.

I know I may be overreacting to steroid use, but after seeing the years of pain my mother suffered from broken bones I am very cautious.

Thank you Ling
