Hi, You say You think you have asthma... Many members of my family are asthmatic so my question is why do you think you are asthmatic? There will be many people on this forum who also have it but I detect a sense of fear in your short post. If you could explain a little more about yourself and why you feel you have it and also why you sound so anxious. There will be many replies to your post so dont fret, share your concerns with us. You will be surprised at the knowledge of the people on here. Take care.

Hi,

If you do have it, it's definitely not the end of the world. Olympic swimmers and runners have it. However you may not have it so best to go to a doctor to get tested. If you don't have it - great! If you do, then they can give you the right medication for when you require it. Some asthmatics only require medicine if they have the flu or a bad cold. Best to get checked.
