Well that I didn’t know. Thank you for that new information. I use BREO, and I’m guessing they are similar. It is all very “no bueno” for me. My brother had to go into an extended care facility, and his girls brought me many dirty and moldy cardboard boxes of our lives. That’s all I can think of as to where I got it as I painstakingly went through them all and put them neatly in plastic bins. I’m sure I sucked up a lot of dust etc in the process. I am a type A personality and the fatigue with this tries my patience. One day at a time. ( irene5)
