Before Xmas I had tight chest no cough just the vague sensation that my breathing wasn't comfortable. Saw gp diagnosed chest infection gave course ab which I took but still the sensation was there. Saw different gp who gave me a ventolin inhaler and told me to take but wasn't convinced it was asthma. Anyway didn't take as by the time I'd got it all aymptoms had gone.
This week upper chest/throat discomfort is back but no wheeze and no cough. Infact not really short of breath just feel tight and uncomfortable but it is coming and going. Anyway I have taken the inhaler and sometimes it helps sometimes it doesn't. Does this sound like asthma to you? I am in my late 30's, gave up smoking 10 years ago and never have had allergies or excema. The only medical history I have is anxiety disorder ( I know this may be related but i'm not convinced). thanks in advance for replies!
