Hi Lyndsay, it is possible the problems you are having are due to a really early and severe start to the pollen season.

thanks its nice for your advice and your opions,

it horrible when you can not work out why you feel poorly

just to let you know that i allways feel like this on my birthday or christmas because i am so exited that my asthma gets worse and my vocal cords tighten! i hope that is not the reason you are feeling so bad and you will be able to enjoy these occasions in the future!
