Only you are responsible for your choices. Scuba diving has risks. No doctor can assure you 100% that you will be fit to dive. Get a thorough check up with your doctor. Does your medication affect your diving? Are you prepared physically,mentally and emotionally to handle the stresses of diving? What if you have an asthma attack under water, how would you react and what would you do? Could you stay cool and surface safely? Would you involuntary inhale water?
If you were to choose to scuba, dive shallow. Even shallow (20ft) you can get air bubbles in bad places that cause bad things.
Only you can decide what risks you are willing to take. You may have your asthma completely under control and will have no problems and have great scuba experiences. It is your life and you get to make the decision. Good luck and good health.
