These attacks are almost like the immune system attacking itself which is why eosinophilic asthma is harder to treat. I've heard of it but don't have experience of it.

I do sympathise with those who have asthma as I've seen it at its worst but at least it can be controlled with corticosteroids which have little or no effect with eosinophilic asthma where the airways become completely obstructed .
