HI.
Since this is a recurrent problem, I would advise you to undergo all the relevant tests once to see the exact problem.
I would advise such a patient the following.
Complete blood counts and picture
X-ray Chest
A proper history to find out the aggravating and relieving factors.
Pulmonary function tests.
Continue Singulair. The Doctors will add on the treatment according to the clinical findings and test reports.
