You are taking right medicines.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to XXXXXXX

You are taking right medicines and you should continue all these as directed to you by your physician.
You didn't write about present condition of UTI.
For asthma also,you didn't mentioned about drugs you are taking.
Now a days,inhalers are the best therapy for asthma,as side effects are much less as compared to oral preparations.You should also avoid those things which aggravates your respiratory problems.
Various bony problems you are suffering from are age related and you should not be much worried about these.These can be managed by physiotherapy.
You should take vitamin and calcium supplements regularly.
You should also take care of your heart.

Hope i have answered your query.
Get well soon.
