[|Human|] Hi there i have a friend that just went to the doctors today and they told her that she has asthma. Her symtoms are severe i looked it up. She also has some other problems like she is freezing cold an has two of everything on an still freezing. She also feels like she is going to pass out if she stands up and when she does stand up everybod goes black and its hard for her to breathe. How serious is this for my friend? im very concerned.
[|AI|]  Hello, I appreciate your concern for your friend. How was her asthma diagnosed? Did she have a lung function test (spirometry) or was it only on clinical grounds? There are other causes of breathlessness. Feeling like freezing is not a usual symptom of asthma, a black-out on standing up again is not a feature of asthma. These suggest a low blood perfusion in the body like in certain conditions of the heart. Your friend is quite ill, and I would recommend that you take her to the ER. You are welcome to contact me if you have further queries. Take care
