Does it have to do with the fire conditions? I feel bad for the people with asthma, with these fire conditions.

yes it is due to the fire conditions his oxgyen level was low the Dr had to put him on the asthma treatment in her office. and he has to take 2 inhalations one is the qvar and the other he has used before it is albuterol. if he does not get in the green zone on his peak low she said they will have to give him stronger medican :(

I know how you feel right now, I have asthma as well. And I remember it getting very bad when we had fires when I used to live in San Diego. Hopefully things clear up for him quickly.

thank you all so much. my son said his chest still feels tight and his peak flow is still in the yellow but we give the new meds time to work.
