A doctor has provided 1 answer
ACT test: Asthma control test. You can find on line. Also if you have a rescue inhaler and only use once in awhile and you find yourself needing it more then you have a flare of your asthma. Follow up with your md. Also you may want to monitor pefr (peak expiratory flow rate).
