My symptoms of chest tightness, shortness of breath, and dry coughing started two years ago when I moved to New York City from Florida. There seems to be a correlation between my symptoms occurring because of pollution (nitrogen dioxide) and cold air. I am not convinced that I have asthma because spirometery and PFT testing have always been normal. I did have a chest x-ray which was clear except my doctor said that my small airways looked pronounced which could indicate airway inflammation.
We all feel things differently, even the same problem, PVC's for example, can feel different from day to day. A brief run of torsades de pointes may be difficult to distinguish from v-tach, v-flutter or a burst of PVC's. Only an EKG would tell the true story.

I worry that all this coughing is damaging her lungs and although she uses a corticosteroids inhaler for her astma everyday and has ventolin regularly it does not seem to help and makes her cough worse when she is alseep. We prop her up and have tried many different things over the years (even when she sleeps propped up in her car seat she would cough and dribble etc until she was sick).
