What Is The Prognosis For Severe Asthma And Persistent Cough In A Woman?

HI, My mom is 75 and lately her health has been deteriorating. She has always had really bad asthma and coughs a lot. She always spits up phlegm. About 5 or 6 months ago, she started slurring words. At first it wasn t too bad but now it seems like she has a hard time getting words out or even saying a full sentence. She has lost a lot of weight and is always tired.

Hello,

Prognosis is good with bronchodilators and steroids. Consult a pulmonologist and he will direct you accordingly.

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

Take care
