The solution is so simple. In order to get your asthma under control, you must see your doctor. Perhaps you use an alarm clock that wakes you up in the morning, maybe put your brown inhaler next to it. Or plonk the inhler on top of your school bag then surely then you will remember!! Seriously though, you will laugh one day about getting yourself in such a worry over such a minor grievence. But do get your asthma under control first.
HI lil tinx,
Might it be worth going back to your GP or asthma nurse and explaining that despite starting to take your inhalers again your asthma is still bad? If you go now, you've got a better chance of getting it sorted before GCSEs start in may.
Also, it's worth talking to your exams co-ordinator about it as special arrangements can be made (e.g. sitting your exams in seperate rooms so if you are ill you won't disrupt people etc).
To remember your inhalers, maybe try having them right by your bed so you see them when you go to bed/ wake up or by your tooth brush if you brush your teeth twice a day.

If you have a mobile phone how about setting a reminder so you remember to take it?
Post it note above your bathroom mirror?
Leave it next to tooth brush?
Hope this helps!

A good idea would be to leave it by your toothbrust ...take it before you brush your teeth then you can kill two birds with one stone and it prevents you getting thrush too,
Good luck with your GCSES!
Hope that helps

Erm... My mate is really bad at remembering hers and she got a spare one and put it in her locker in school. That way when shes doing her books in the morning, she sees it and toodles of to the loo and takes it.
