My sister's asthma

My sister has been doing well lately but this week she is having trouble breathing. She has been to Drs. Saw the asthma nurse. Told her chest was clear but she might have a chest infection. Given more steroids and antibiotics. Her peak flow was 300 which is low for her as she usually does better than that.

I think she will just have to take the stuff and see how it goes. If it is clearly not working you need to go back and this time see the GP.
