Let me help: I believe you should have diagnosis first then the treatment, so go to your doctor and have him check you out then treat you. Good luck.

Nebulizer: Since you are dizzy and short of breath, the nebulizer will work quicker and better. Advair does not help acute asthma attacks. The inhaler will help but the nebulizer provides more medication and the saline helps loosen mucus plugs.
