Get treated : It sounds like you have moderate asthma that would require inhaled steroids. Don't sit in this. Do see a physician, find out what stage asthma you're in, & get treated right away. Hope that helps.

I have a bad cough and am wheezing as well. My albuterol has expired 2011. Was wondering if it would hurt to try the nebulizer anyway to see if it would help wheezing?

Bad cough, metallic taste, wheezing and mucus. Happens only at night. Lasts 5-10 minutes then stops. Inhaler doesn't help. What could be the problem?
