| Kit,
My mother is chronic asthmatic and my daughter has mild asthma. I know in my Daughter's case, during the summer months she suffers from Hay Fever and which can lead to more frequent use of her rescure (Ventolin) inhaler. A few years ago she started using singulair (1 tablet daily) and this has helped not only her asthma but also hay fever. As you have summer now, is it possible that you are suffering from hay fever too?
I know that if my daughter has a cold or hayfever, that taking 1-2 puffs of ventolin and then waiting 1-2 minutes followed by using her control (flixotide) inhaler really helps. As the ventolin, helps "open" the lungs or make them more receptive to the control inhaler.
Have you looked at something like singulair?
I can't comment on asthma and diabetes but offer the above for what it's worth.
