hi just recently told asthmatic but seen a lot of posts where people say they are a certain type of asthmatic. I was told allergic to dust, and still going to consultant for follow up reviews, on seretide 250 twice a day and ventolin for reliever, find my main problem is coughing continuously, however since on seretide this has settled but i still wake around 5am tightness and coughing, what asthma am i, who tells u this and what various types are they? thanks for any information x
