MessageOk, so the situation is that you have no local resources. Given that there are no garuntees in life, and we're all just getting along as best we can, here's what I would recommend:
A combination of herbs, acupressure, and exercise (including qi gong).
Herbs
Call up either dragon herbs ( http://dragonherbs.com/ ) or the tea garden herbal emporium ( http://teagardenherbalemporium.com/ ) and ask to speak to one of their doctors. Tell them your situation, say that you're looking for a long term remedy, answer any questions, get what they recommend (it should be one formula, or maybe two). Expect that you'll get improvements, but that also you'll be taking herbs for at least quite some months.
Acupressure
Buy the CD version of a Manual of Acupuncture. It's searchable. You can search for "asthma" and apply self-acupressure (not acupuncture) of various classical acupoint-combinations for asthma. (btw, the hardcover book is over at amazon.) Acupressure is very convenient and safe for us amateurs, and you'll find that, over time, you'll learn a lot and help yourself a lot with it - very inexpensively. It'll not only assist you with specific maladies, but will help keep your channels open in general, will make your qi gong endeavors much more fruitful over the long haul.
Exercise (and qi gong)
Whatever you decide to take up.
best of luck,
Trunk
