Ah ok.... in which case it sounds like you were either experiencing
relief from an airborne contaminant that usually has a negative effect
on your breathing - say the removal of pollen or some other dust. Or,
you may have found the altered humidity with the mask on helped in some
way.

I'd go along with that, with more weight on the raised humidty. A
nebuliser is just a fine water mist. Yes drugs can be added to it but
just the mist can help poor breathing.


Which is a bit strange as asthma typically gets worse in very thundery
weather.


Actually not really. It depends on what is triggering it.
