One doctor mentioned that untreated asthma can lead to emphyzema (spelling?) later in life, so it's important to treat it if you have it.
I've been told I have exercise induced asthma, but you know what? I never had it before I had walking pneumonia last year, then pleurisy, then bronchial spasms. And the inhaler they gave me does nothing but make me dizzy for a few minutes.

I just struggle with it til it goes away, don't know what else to do.
