Woke this morning with a fluid feeling in my throat & lungs which made a bark sound when i tried to clear, is this my asthma or infection?

Cough: Could be either. See how the symptoms progress. Try otc medications for fever/muscle aches. Make a doctor appt if it doesn't get better especially if breathlessness becomes a more prominent symptom.
