A member asked:
Allergic to leaves/mold + asthma. find i'm using inhaler/neb more freq. does this mean asthma is no longer well controlled? what do i tell my pulmo?

Yes: Increasing use of a rescue inhaler may mean that asthma is not well controlled - or maybe that there is an infection. Would let your pulmonologist know the frequency that you are having to use a rescue inhaler as well as letting him or her know all of your symptoms.
