My asthma has gotten pretty bad due to this cold. I have my rescue inhaler and my portable nebulizer, but am wondering if I can do anything else for it? I mean like maybe some prednisone or something. I am going to dialysis monday and if its not any better I may ask for a prescription of prednisone.. help! I hate not being able to breathe right, its scary

Are you on Advair?

Also, ask about Theophylline and Xolair

Work on finding a good allergist.  Asthma sucks.  Prayers for you.
