What Is The Treatment For Asthmatic Attack?
Am i getting sick or is my asthma messing with me?
monday morning i woke up feeling kinda sick, i was little stuffy and a tad hoarse, then monday afternoon was by the air conditioner for like a minutes then i ended up having an asthma attack and needed my inhaler. then yesterday morning woke up kinda the same way, then i ended up having another asthma attack and needed my inhaler cause i was gagging, then most of day i was ok then i ended up coming home from work with a semi nauseous headache and i had that most of the evening. then today i woke up hoarse again and i was coughing some to this morning.
so my questions are:
1.am i getting sick or is it my asthma messing with me?
2. should i take my temp to be safe?
3. should i call my doctor or let it go?

Hi
Appreciate your concern.
1. The symptoms are pointing towards other co morbid conditions i.e. allergic rhinitis and sinusitis. You need to manage these conditions ,concurrently, while managing your asthma.
2. You should avoid frequent changes in temperature of your environment and diet as you might be allergic.
3. You need an ENT consultation as soon as possible
