Hi

sometimes asthma can be like this. What medication is your child on and how old is he?

Have you tried ring the asthma Uk asthma nurses for a chat, they may be able to suggest other treatments for your child. Then you can go and ask your GP for them saying you have spoken to asthma Uk.

It can be very distressing for people watching. Feel free to ask for support from people on the boards although we cannot give medical advise we can give you friendship and a listening ear.

Hope the asthma uk nurse can help you!
