Our fridge sits at 4 degrees centigrade and has a flap at the bottom of the cabinet which holds fresh food stuffs at zero degrees.

ive been finding the tap water extremely cold to drink it takes my breath away

You sound totally normal for an Asthma sufferer Granny Mo, been finding cold water straight from the tap lately just too cold for my ole puffy sacks too. Just have to wrap up like you were going to Siberia before opening the fridge, then hubby really will think you have gone lalala LOL.
