james , i know one thing buddy , i would rather have asthma than have to go thru what you do m8
i have to use my inhaler at least 4 times a day at the moment sometimes 5 or 6 . mostly at night time . i have to squirt the salbutamol , then the beclamethasone then the serovent twice a day as a form of preventative . it allways gets better in the summer months tho so roll on summer
one thing i will say is swimming is a really good thing to do if you suffer from asthma , thats why im heavily into my watersports
