I have allergic asthma, and exercise actually makes it better, since it suppresses my immune system enough to tamp the allergies down a bit. But I'm sure it's possible to have both kinds.

I would definitely suggest that you do see an allergist, since immunotherapy can actually treat the allergies, rather than just the symptoms.
Yup. I have both...and I think this Fall I am finally going to look into immunotherapy/shots. I am almost 40 and have been battling this crap for way too long. I'm tired of taking Zyrtec 365 days/year and inhaled steroids.
