The factors that set Brittle Asthma apart from its Regular counterpart are:
The severity of the symptoms.
The reluctance of those symptoms to respond to treatment.
The sudden and often unpredictable onset of acute attacks.
The severity of such attacks.
The general overall effect on the life of the sufferer.
