Prevention
The best way to prevent asthma attacks is to identify and avoid indoor and outdoor allergens and irritants. That's easier said than done because thousands of outdoor allergens and irritants — ranging from pollen and mold to cold air and air pollution — can trigger your attacks. A number of indoor allergens, including dust mites, cockroaches, pet dander and mold, can do the same. A common asthma irritant is tobacco smoke.
Even if you reduce indoor and outdoor allergens and irritants, managing asthma can be challenging. It often takes ongoing communication and teamwork with your doctor. But by working together, you and your doctor can design a step-by-step plan for living with your condition. In addition to knowing and avoiding your triggers, develop an action plan, monitor your breathing and treat attacks early.
Develop an action plan. With your doctor and health care team, write a detailed plan for taking maintenance medications and managing an acute attack. Then be sure to follow your plan. Asthma is an ongoing condition that needs regular monitoring and treatment. Taking control of your treatment can make you feel more in control of your life in general.
Monitor your breathing. You may learn to recognize warning signs of an impending attack, such as slight coughing, wheezing or shortness of breath. But because your lung function may decrease before you notice any signs or symptoms, regularly measure your peak airflow with a home peak flow meter.
Treat attacks early. If you act quickly, you're less likely to have a severe attack. You also won't need as much medication to control your symptoms. When your peak flow measurements decrease and alert you to an impending attack, take your medication as instructed and immediately stop any activity that may have triggered the attack. If your symptoms don't improve, get medical help as directed in your action plan.

Huh? I can hardly make out your question! Your asthma must be terrible! It's even attacking your writting!
Sorry! Had to say that!
I think you should go to your local clinic and ask them for an asthma shot.
To all other asthma sufferers: AVOID USING THE INHALER AT ALL COSTS. THEIR ADDICTIVE AND DON'T HELP AS MUCH AS THEY SHOULD. Imagine you're caught one day withough your inhaler...Tragedy...

Try removing milk and dairy products from your diet. It works.
