Been feeling tight chested , Wheezing dripping nose , Coughing up white and green mucus worse at night can't sleep been put on antibiotics and steroids for a week starting feeling a bit better now, This is the second flare up it last two months, My asthma and COPD has been under control over the last few years but last couple of months it has flared up, I try to look after myself walking and biking, I also have coronary artery diesese two Stents back in 2017 and my left side of my heart walls are thicker so got to keep my blood pressure under control, Anyone else suffering more with there asthma and COPD lately
