If you feel bad just go straight to the hospital as asthma is life threatening, I hope you get well soon, your lungs could be so congested keep safe

Are you also on antibiotics? .... the pain of a chest infection can be very unpleasant I find pain killers and heat pads help.... however I can't have ibuprofen so strong cocodamol it is for me when they are that bad they cause pain

If you can take painkillers then do so. Hot water bottle is brilliant too. Hopefully the steriods will work soon but any doubts don't suffer on your own xx
