Dear patient.sorry to hear about ur condition. The lactic acidosis u r suffering from is temporary .if ur wheezing is controlled then ur doctor will shift u from corticosteroid tablets to inhaler steroids which are much safer in long run and will prevent further asthmatic attacks.try to avoud dusty areas and excessive pollution outside by wearing a face mask. And take plenty of fluids to keep urself hydrated.Ask ur doctor to add montelukast+levocetrizine formulation. In long run it will prevent future attacks coupled with fluticasone inhaler. Try to keep ur stress levels under control as even emotional instability can trigger an attack.
