I have not found anything to help I was up all night I have a headache ! And I really want to cough something up at this point. I’m on symbacort and a rescue inhaler albuterol . I feel horrid I’m a non smoker hardly drink I use great house filters and I vaccume over and over just to keep my cat hair down and I have had these cats for years and never felt this bad ! I wash everything on my bed once a week I do sleep with a fan on me but I just ordered an tower air purifier to use instead. Anyone have any tips

I assume you keep the cats out of the bedroom. It is a sad fact that you might have developed an allergy to them, even though you've had them for years. Do you sleep propped up? When I'm bad I have 4 pillows behind me and one under my knees. It helps a bit. I think you should talk to your GP, though, in case you've got one of these bugs that is laying everyone low at the moment.
