Many Options: I am not clear from your question whether or not your difficulty breathing is not controlled on your current medications or medications that your are taking for other problems are making your breathing difficult. There are several other types of medications you can use for your asthma if need be. These include Zyflo, (zileuton) Spiriva, Xolair, or others. See an asthma specialist to help you.
