<human>: I am a 54 year old female that has had allergies and asthma for over 20 years. We recently moved to the Northwest and had to change doctors. The allergist that I went to took me off the Flovent that I was using and put me on shots. After two years of getting 6 shots a week for all the allergies that I have, I was not improving at all. So I went to another allergy doctor, who put me on a maintenance level of Prednisone, This worked wonders but I gained a lot of weight and my gynecologist was worried about bone density. Now I m at a point where I m not sure what to do. I am taking Singulair for the asthma and Nasacort for the allergies. I currently have no allergy doctor, just my Primary. She has suggested that I go back on Flovent and has written a prescription. Does this seem like the right course of treatment or is there something better that I should be doing?
