Sudden breathlessness

2022-03-17 15:47:52
Diagnosed with asthma since 1.5 year. Taking budecort inhaler 400mcg twice daily. Last PFT done 2 months back was 59% . Since 15-20 days, I am having issue of sudden or evening time breathlessness. I occassionally take salbutamol inhaler to combat severe breathlessness. But today even after that, I am having breathlessness, confusion and feel unstable. What can be the reason? My age is 27. I don't have any other conditions. What steps should I take? I also do regular meditation.
