Which med?: Need to know which medications you have tried and for how long? First we need to make sure that you indeed have asthma instead of other entities such as vocal cord dysfunction. We need to know if there are other conditions such as GERD or sinusitis. Consider consulting with an allergist.

See your doc: If you are having an asthma flare and your medication isn't working, it is time to get seen by your physician. Asthma is a potentially fatal disease if not controlled. The list of things that could be leading to your not getting better is huge and you will need expert help in sorting it all out. Don't wait.
