Do I have Asthma

I am not sure if I have asthma but I think I do,

I took the NHS quiz and it said I may have it.

I keep on coughing heavily.

and keep on losing my breath.

Do I have it?

The rules state that forum members can't give that sort of answer as not medically qualified. However you may contact the asthma nurses on AsthmaUK by telephone or email - click on the red label, top left corner of this page, for more details - I have found them to be very helpful.

Well said GrannyMo,

It would be dangerous for forum users to give any type of medical advice.

If you are worried you should see your GP or do as GrannyMo says and contact an Asthma UK nurse who can advise you further.

Go and see your GP

You need to go and see your GP ASAP - pick up the phone first thing in the morning and book an appointment.

A cough could be anything - it could be asthma, it could not. It could just be a cough. You need to see your GP though as none of us here are qualified to diagnose you, let alone over the Internet.

Go and see your GP, get his/her opinion, get some medication, put your mind at ease.

Best of luck.

Let us know how you get on.
