Maybe a CP link... Were you a preemie? If your lungs were underdeveloped there may have been some scarring which could be showing up again as a problem now as you age. Also, preemies are more susceptible to RSV ( a serious respiratory virus which hits kids under age 5 but especially preemies). RSV can lead to asthma down the road. Like everything else if you have a weak spot somewhere it will tend to get worse as you age... :-)
Just a thought.

when i was a kid, i had asmaha that was alergic in cause. took shots for
years. got over it. now in my older age i am beginning to have some mild
symptoms. not terrible, but requiring some over the counter meds. no cp link
i'd think, but, i think it is the polution here in atlanta ga. you guys in
big cities, any of you have any problems you attribute to city polution?
