Hello
Welcome again and thanks for the details
Shortness of breath even after a minutes walk is a matter of concern which needs to be evaluated in details to find out the reason behind this. It can be related to obesity, heart or lung disease, anaemia and many other rare causes.
I would advise for following investigations and if you have already done these tests than upload me the reports like blood for hemoglobin, CBC, ESR AEC ( absolute eosinophil count ), ECG , echocardiography, pulmonary function test.
In my opinion you should continue with your medicines for asthma provenil and flovent.
You should do deep breathing exercises and steam inhalation to keep airway clear an moist.
Please don't hesitate to a slightly for follow up questions or further queries.
Best wishes
