> If you've been on Flonase long enough (and you have), consider having a blood test to measure the level of your adrenal hormones. Maybe, Flonase is now bad for you in the long run. Doctors like NOT to ask questions or order tests when they have to change their treatment plan.

That's not a bad idea. It's not out of the question that steroids might be causing some ill-effects.

I used to work at a pharmacy, so I'd ask the pharmacists about long-time use when I got the chance. None of them seemed to think that the amount of steroid in Flonase was significant enough to cause major systemic changes, but of course it was just speculation.

I'm not really sure how I'd breath without Flonase! I'd glady stop taking it if there where alternatives that controlled my allergies. I haven't found any yet.
