A member asked:
Shortness of breath not helped my inhaler or steroids never had asthma doc said acute broncitus but been 8 weeks?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Be reassessed: It is unusual for you to remain SOB because of asthma after being treated for 8 weeks. You should return to your MD or to an urgent care center to be reviewed for other causes for your SOB. You may require a CXR or further testing.
