Be evaluated soon: If your asthma is acting up, you should see your doctor ASAP to prevent it from worsening. Your symptoms can be due to poorly controlled asthma with a low oxygen level, or overuse of your rescue medication. Overuse of your medication can be very dangerous. Your doctor can help stabilize your asthma with other medications. Seek help now - asthma is NOT something to take lightly! It can kill.

Asthma: your bad asthma symptoms could be causing you to be not getting enough oxygen. You could also be overusing your rescue inhaler. Please see healthcare provider or go to er/urgent care asap.
