I have been away from the forum for quite some time. My ipad is working better now so I am back. I was stuck with my phone and the website is impossible on a phone.. Can't get the hang of the app.

Anyway, I have taken budesonide. My doctor did not want me to,take the inhaled version while I was on pred. I don't remember why. It was onky my primary care at that time, and she is very cautious about meds. Later on in my journey with asthma/chronic sinusitis/bronchiectasis, I had an ENT who gave me budesonide capsules which I emptied into my sinus rinse, It seemed to help quite a bit. Very expensive though and ultimately I found that other things worked better.

I have never heard of taking it in a pill form. I am glad that it is working for you. @annekat has an amazing memory. I barely remember taking it myself! Feel better soon! ❤️
