A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to say : Asthma is a lifelong condition that varies in intensity from almost undetectable to life threatening. Sudden death in asthma has changed little in frequency in spite of advances in treatment.If you don't have a written asthma management plan/diary you should meet with your doc & start one. This would cite symptoms to monitor & meds to add or subtract depending on daily needs. Get in for evaluation
