Aww Jilly Willy I know hwat you are saying. When I saw my doctor last week I was only on day 2 of uncontrolled asthma but because of how quickly it asperated I know something was not righ tbut I also didn't expected to be put on 8 steriods tablets for 5 days which is 3 more than normal for me and anti-bios for 7 days. I am know on day 11 of uncontrolled asthma and I am still were I was when I saw the doctor even though I completed the steriods and anti-bios as prescribed. I think sometimes we don't feel ill until we are really bad or at least this is what I have started to think as this isn't the first time this has happened to me.
Hope you start to feel better soon and take care fo yourself
