Having Asthma Attach, Having Breathing Problem. Taken 4 Doses Of Rescue Inhaler. Should I Meet A Doctor?

I am currently having an asthma attack where I can barely breathe. It's taking so much effort to breath that I feel pain in my left shoulder near the collar bone, and pain near my kidneys. There was a cold going around my home the past few days, and though I have previous asthma issues, the cold is making it worse to the point that I have taken four doses of my rescue inhaler in the past few hours... I'm not sure if I should seek medical attention or just wait it out or even take more doses of my inhaler. I have a history with DVT and have been diagnosed with Behcet's Syndrome.
