asthma

I woke up this morning and felt drugged. i got up and fried an egg and had a cup of tea and realized I can't quite breathe fully. It's a scarey feeling. So, oh yeah, gotta take allergy meds, use the Advair (big guns for asthma) and then the regular albuterol inhaler for the need to breathe in the immediate moment. It's hot here in the East Bay and so we have to sleep with the windows open. I'm thinking that is why i can't breathe. So, until the drugs kick in I don't even want to exert myself. what's a mother to do?
