Why do i wheeze on waking?

Every morning for the last few weeks (maybe more) I've woken up with a wheeze. It only happens when I take a deep breath on getting out of bed and occasionally I notice it when lying down during the day or evening. But it's mostly only noticeable that one time as soon as I wake up in the morning. I also have a stuffy nose so could it be an allergy or asthma? I'm going to get some antihistamines today to see if it helps but would be interested to know if anyone else has had this and did you go to the Dr about it?

Sounds like hay fever, try taking anitistermines, you need to take for a week or so to get the full effect.

Dust mites. It's their poo we breathe in during the night and causes those symptoms.

There are ways to reduce it on the www if you have a Google.

Acid reflux is also a possibility

Thanks all, I've been taking the antihistamines for a couple of days and it seems to have reduced. My daughter has quite a bad dustmite allergy and is also allergic to grass pollen and I'm prone to reflux so could be any of those!
