Brief Answer:
Your symptoms might be related to anora inhaler

Detailed Answer:
Hello Ma'am
I really appreciate your concern.

Your symptoms might be related to anora inhaler so I would advise you to reduce its dosage and frequency after discussing with your doctor, if you are feeling better with these inhalers.

If possible upload me all your reports and other investigation like blood sugar, lipid profile and CBC if you have ordered for it , So that I will be able to tell you more precisely.

In addition to inhalers I would advise you for deep breathing exercises, try to avoid allergens which triggers the COPD attacks.

Hope this answers your question please feel free to ask for follow up question I will be happy to help you.
Best wishes
