Me? Asthma?
I think I might have exercised induced asthma. I've always hated exercising outside when it's cold. When it's warm -- it's fine. When it's cold though it makes it really hard to breathe for me. Not just when the wind is blowing 90 miles an hour and it's 56 below zero. On days when no one else has problems -- i start exercising and I can barely breath.
I went biking today -- and it was fine -- but I was having an awful time breathing well. About 3/4 of the way though I literally had to get off of my bike and sit on the ground b/c I couldn't breathe, starting wheezing, felt light headed, my chest was hurting, and I felt numb all over.
Definitely came back and googled it -- it seems that one of the major triggers for exercise induced asthma is cold air. I think I found a solution. Guess it means I need to go to the doctor and see what he thinks -- and get some medication and see if that helps.
Scary.
