Is your doctor working to identify your triggers or treating the allergy that is causing the asthma? If not...actually as severe as your case is even if your doctor is, I would ask for a referral to an allergist. They will know to attack the allergy as well as just the asthma. Do you know what is triggering it? If you don't there is no way you can take precautions to avoid it. I don't know that they would attempt a skin prick test on you at this point but they may still be able to test some other ways. If nothing else an allergist will know what some of the strongest and most current allergy meds are for you to try. I hope you can get something to help you soon. Mary
