Does this sound like asthma?

I'm getting wheezy and somewhat breathless at times. My chest feels tight and as though there's something sitting on it. I keep having to cough and the cough is very dry. It's not covid, but I've been like this since last March when I did have covid.

I don't smoke, but I used to and gave up 12 years ago. I was never a heavy smoker, just around five a day.

March 2020 that is, not March gone.

Quite possibly. Suggest you make an appt with your GP. They'll probably get you to do a peak flow test and go from there.
