Suggest Treatment For Asthma
I have been diagnosed with asthma at 32 years old. I had never been diagnosed with asthma before now. I went to the doctor with a severe cough & that is what he told me. I seem to cough more when I am tired or worn down. Is this normal with asthma? I try to use the inhaler but it makes my heart race & makes me feel even more exhausted than without it.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The reliever inhalor can be associated with increased heart rate. To reduce your need for it, you may want to consider the preventer inhalor.
This would prevent your symptoms from occurring at all.
The triggers for asthma vary but the more common ones are: infections particularly the common cold, allergic sinusitis, exercise, emotion, gastroesophageal reflux, dust and other allergens
I hope this helps
