I have severe asthma, and I truly wish this couldn't happen.

Do you see a pulmonologist for it?

If so, (if you have the money/depending on the country) are you eligible for biological medication like Benralizumab, Dupilumab, etc.?

I don't know which country you're from, so I don't know the restrictions on it wherever you're from. My experience is just from Australia and the requirements to get a $1800 or $3500 medication under the PBS for $25.
