I have a cough.

Not a cold-virus cough, or a bronchitis cough, or anything else I've had before. It's a shallow, dry, can't-catch-my-breath cough. Worse when I talk. Much worse when I move around. It's really uncomfortable.

No fever. No congestion, really. Allergy symptoms well controlled by Clarinex. It's just this cough, and this shortness of breath.

If it doesn't go away by Monday, I'll go to the doctor.

I was wondering about that, actually. Can you get asthma when you're twenty-nine?

Happened to me in my 30s, after a lovely bronchitis--courtesy of Camp Pendleton.

It's settled down now--hardly EVER do I need an inhaler. But talk about annoying...

I think so...I got it when I was 35. Mine is really well controlled, with Advair and very occasional use of an albuterol inhaler.
