Weird asthma presentation

Hi everyone,
I have multiple conditions so it can be quite hard to recognise what's going on. I spent all day in a bad way. Struggling to keep my eyes open or even sit up. Unable to eat or drink. I thought another condition was flaring up but then in the afternoon I realised my breathing was funny. Short heavy exhales. So I took my rescue puffer and my lungs feel more at ease and now I'm hungry. This is not what you think of when you think asthma attack. I felt like crying too. That often happens during asthma for me too. But it takes me hours to realise what's going on because my brain is impaired. The second I start doing anything, even sitting up I struggle again. Dam this fatigue.
