Dec. 4 this week began with an acute shortness of breath

Actually it began in early November. The side effects of the symbicourt , dry mouth was bad but nothing like the lose of taste. I went back to advir but it was the wrong one and I did not want up back to the doctor but went back to the symbicourt until my appt on the 23 of December. Now back on the right one but the killer is that it can take up to two weeks before it takes effect. Until then it like being in. Block of ice. You want to go things but when you do you become extremely short of breath. The longer you linger the harder it is to get up and go. No one has any idea how hard it is. Sometime it feels like you go not have the strength to breath but you know you have to so you just sit and it seems the world is passing you by
