hi.

your son sounds like a similar situation to the one I was in, when I was younger myself. how old is your son now? has he been checked for acid reflux? it can worsen asthma symptoms. I had bad asthma for around 3yrs, then it died down, it came back a few years later fairly mild at the start, but developed into severe asthma again with frequent admissions and trips to A&E.

feel free to PM me if you want to talk. I don't have children myself but I have had asthma for around 14/15yrs.
