What Causes Dizziness And Shortness Of Breath When Diagnosed With Asthma?

I have been diagnosed with asthma after having a virus several months ago. For several weeks I have felt slightly disoriented when walking or turning around and feeling some shortness of breath. Went to my primary care Dr. and he did an EKG and that was fine. Are these symptoms of asthma?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it may not be due to asthma and it can not be pure form of bronchial asthma but it the allergic condition mimic the breathlessness, anti-histamine can be tried for this and best one would be Tab Ketotifen 2mg once in day hope this information helps.
