    Roger, you are indeed in your element, Medical Instruction! Your unique, and creative style of illustrating medical information makes understanding even complex subjects, so much easier, and will so help retention! Referencing inhalers; using the "box" device, the compound suffix key, all most excellent, much appreciated-----Thank You.

    Very well explained asthma vs COPD treatments and why certain meds are given in a different order to treat them both. Interesting feature , asthma is treated with the same meds as COPD but with different protocol. Many Thanks for clearing things up. Theresa Mitchel CRNA
