    I have allergic asthma, but no one who doesn't know me well would know I have it. Asthma doesn't have to be a choking, inhaler-grabbing, land in the ER thing. It can be fairly subtle, like mine (and it's plenty, and thank goodness I don't have that severe kind).

    Generally I'm much better in dry, cooler environments. That could be simply because allergens are lower (damp breeds mold and dust mites, and warm breeds pollen).

    But the main thing is, any time I'm exercising I'm MUCH better, because my immune system is suppressed.

    I know cold, dry weather is awful for people with EIA, but I'm really not sure the same is true for people with allergic asthma.
