Hi. I understand your concern s. It depends upon the severity of asthma usually better assessed by pulmonary function test. Have a regular follow up with your treating pulmonologist. Asthma is a chronic disease which can not be cured but can definitely be controlled so that you can have a symptom free life ahead. Also get a Allergist opinion.
