Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

ABPA (Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis) is a chronic lung infection. It is usually static. But sometimes it can flare up and cause bronchitis (inflammation of airways). This causes all your symptoms. So you should take inhaled bronchodilators (Formoterol or Salmeterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (Budesonide or Fluticasone) for relief. You should also take oral bronchodilator (Acebrophylline). Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Kaushal Bhavsar
