Anyone else finding asthma worse with today's changes in air pressure?

Anyone else really struggling with asthma and changes in atmospheric pressure today?

My asthma is normally well controlled but I've taken the maximum puffs of my inhaler and there's just no air. I can breathe so no need for anything drastic like A and E but it's an effort and even hanging a few things on the washing line has wiped me out.

Tempted to go to the gym for the aircon but I absolutely know my dh would think I'm trying to avoid gardening!!

I had a spiro test on Friday and they’ve upped my dose in everything - currently on three puffers. It’s a struggle - getting a lot more breathless with stuff that is usually fine. Sending solidarity.
