I got infuenza virus almost 8 weeks ago. 7 days after getting the virus I started having asthma attacks daily and still do. At the beginning I needed 50 mg predinisone to regulate my breathing. Also on 3 different inhalers. I am a non-smoker with no other illnesses and never experienced asthma or any difficulty breathing before. I had 2 x-rays and 1 ct scan that was good. Therefore my doctor said I have allergies ? I have never been testing for allergies and personally think this influenza caused this . Your thoughts or recommendations would be appreciated
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum.  As you describe, you had chest infection. If its viral infection, or an allergy it will have a bacterial infection and lead to pneumonia, if not treated promptly may lead to recurrent breathlessness.  The infection of the tuberculosis also should be excluded.  I advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment.  I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms lifetime, D.E.C, theophylline,cetirizine etc. Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
