Then it creeps back and I notice I am hanging on the walls gasping for air wondering why I am so old and out of shape. It's a pain.
That's asthma? Fairly often after a hard swim during work out I feel like I just can't catch my breath. Especially sprints. Feels like there is no possible way to get in enough air. And it seems like it takes me longer to get air and recover than everyone else. Until now I thought it might just be that they're sand bagging and not swimming as hard as I was.
I've also noticed, especially since the fires we had in So Cal back in the fall, that any time things are dusty my chest feels tight. Similar to how it felt back in the 70's and early 80's when the smog was bad.
Am I being paranoid or should I go check this out?
