Do I have asthma still?

I'm 28 yrs old, and used to have asthma when I was younger. I never had an actual attack as such, but would be wheezy and very uncomfortable. It also never happened unless I had a cold, which would always go to my chest and become bronchitis. It was always on breathing in, there'd be the wheeze and a feeling of lack of air, but nothing ever that bad.

These days, I don't tend to get chesty colds anymore, and I also haven't had to use my Ventolin for over 2 years...

I do still get a bit irritated/wheezy when laughing too much or occasionally if I get a simple head cold, but it tends to go away on its own. It's different from the wheezing I used to get too, it's more on the exhalation now, and not a whistle, but more ... it's hard to describe. If I cough, it changes.

Re: Do I have asthma still?

Asthma never goes away. it is a cronic problem. Do not concern, seems to be a mild form.
asthma reacts to something in the air,some days are good and others are harsh.
If you can figure what triggers the attacks,then life will become much more easy.
Keep as positive as possible
