Note that in any other physical exercise; lifting weights, 30 minute stationary bike ride, P90X hour long cardio workout, I experience no wheezing or congestion. Also note that today, I went for a 1.5 mile fast jog and experienced no issue afterwards.View Thread


I've read that in studies, Omega 3 fatty acids from fish oil reduce inflammation from asthma. I took 2 tablets yesterday morning and ran a mile and a half a couple hours later, and experienced no wheezing whatsoever.
Do you think there's any hope that it's not Asthma?View Thread


Now after I run about 1.5 miles, I seem to wheeze. I believe I have post nasal drip because I always seem to have excess mucus in the back of my throat, so I'm wondering if this might cause it. The symptoms seem to dissipate after 10-15 minutes of rest after running. I experience no chest tightness either.
Could this be caused by post nasal drip or not being used to running, or does it have to be asthma?
A little information that might help: I was born 3 months premature and has asthma until the age of 4. My doctor claims I don't have it anymore, but it might be exercise induced. I honestly hope it isn't because then I'll be disqualified for military service.
Thank you,
Ben
