Thanks very much for the info. I had not considered asthma. Actually, I'm not even sure what it is. I guess I have some googling ahead of me. Like I said, I have an appt tomorrow with an allergy specialist. With any luck, he will be able to help.

If it is asthma, I hope it doesn't prevent me from exercising. I like to do the spinning bikes and have never before had problems breathing on them. I've always had good air despite the allergies. Somehow the word "chronic" does not make me feel warm and fuzzy.
