OK well, this happens alot but this is how it progresses. I'm swimming warm up feeling pretty good and then we continue swim, feel good. We start doing some quick sets get the heart rate going, breathing a little heavier, and i feel this irritation deep in my lungs, not too bad right now. However, the main set comes around and about half way though I go into a sparatic, uncontrolable cough. It is very bad, I am coughing in between breaths underwater and it just feels worse when you breath in. At the wall i am breath very fast because if i breath to deep i will cough more. This happens to just about everyone in the pool and i feel i cant get the most out of my time int he water. Usually the coach opens the door and it helps a bit, but not reall yin lane six fartherst from the door. Also our pool has no openable windows. Are there any other suggestions for fixing this problem? My team and i are desperate.

    Craig the gas that comes from chlorine and acid mixture is the same gas the Germans used in the first war. It can be very deadly. My brother Bill inhaled chorine gas in a pool in Washington several years ago and was lucky to survive it burned his lungs severally.
