lately my asthma has been getting increasingly worse. about 2 months ago i went to see my doctor because of this, and she added a new medication. while this worked at first, in the last few weeks my asthma has become worse than ever. i'm getting several asthma attacks a day (as opposed to several a week), my rescue inhaler is always needed in these asthma attacks (before in some of the attacks i could eventually work through the attack without an inhaler), the inhaler isn't quite as helpful or fast working as it used to be [ in these attacks ], and symptoms accompanying the attacks have been born (lips turning blue and oxygen-deprivation headaches). anyway, i was wondering why my asthma seems to be getting progressively worse lately, and more importantly if there is anything i can do about it.


thanks for any help in advance.
