hi welcome to hcm
as you said youare on bricanyl and an inhaler iwould like to advise you to get proper evaluation as your asthma is not under control and it being persistent iwould advise you to visit your pulmonologist and step up your therapy
with may be use of oral steroids necessary
hope you get well soon
with warm regards
