A member asked:
Why is it that i can't breathe in this heat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Asthma or COPD: Being 34, COPD (chronic, obstructive lung disease) is less likely, but i would say you may have asthma. Asthmatics often have trouble breathing with rapid weather changes, extreme heat/cold, dusty/smoky environment, or when sick with cold/flu etc...Since you are having trouble breathing with change of weather/heat, consult doc for an evaluation and possible treatment. Good luck.
