I have been struggling to control my asthma for about two weeks already for some reason I’ve been getting discomfort on my chest and haven’t been able to really breathe normally. Anybody got some remedies or anthrax will help thank you

Have you read much about thinking about asthma in terms of categories (mild moderate severe) and step up / step down treatments? It might be a helpful way to think about what your protocol should be moving forward
