Brief Answer:
No, it does not

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

I can understand your concern

According to the history, I don't think the chest X-Ray findings may be the cause of asthma symptoms.

There is no chance that the prominent ascending aorta is the cause of wheezing and breathlessness.

So your asthma doesn't seem to be responding to several treatments. Maybe there are other diseases that aggravate the situation such as arterial hypertension or gastric reflux. Please discuss with your doctor about them.

Hope to have been helpful.

Regards and feel free to ask me again...
