I clicked the wrong thing, thanks for the heads up!

Exercise-induced is what I have, but the cold can trigger it too 😭

I had the undiagnosed symptoms since childhood, I believe, like the closed-up chest, but it got worse as a teen from what i remember.

Well, one day, it was Freshman Gym class. We had to take a running test, and I noticeably started to feel like my lungs were on fire after the seventh lap or so. By the tenth lap, it felt like my chest was very tight, burning, and my head felt very light. I felt myself start to double over and my eyes nearly closed. I told my friend, and she said: “I have asthma. It sounds like you do, too.”

I told my Mom and Dad and they took me to a doctor for a possible diagnosis. The doctor gave me an inhaler and said I had asthma.

I was suspected to have asthma as a child so I asked my parents and they laughed it off until I nearly passed out when I had to do a running test in Freshman Gym class.
