Pulmonologist 's  Response
Hello.

I am sorry for your situation.
As you well prescribe you are under treatment for cardiac problems,bronchial asthma, diabetes and pulmonary congestion.I think the treatment you are taking are the right ones.Sometimes there are several cardiac diagnosis that interfere in lungs causing pulmonary congestion.
If i were your doctor i will add in your treatment some diuretic medication to help the heart to pomp better the blood in the peripheral regions and the lungs not to be overloaded.

I wish you all the best
