| I have asthma - all be it very mild.
For me the triggers are:
Allergy (I still haven't pinpointed to what) - so filtered clean air is brilliant.
Temperature changes - OK yes this could be an issue when diving but if I felt myself getting tight on the surface I would abort the dive, once acclimatised in the water it won't affect me (I've even done ice diving).
Exercise - I can't run to safe my life but swimming is fine and I have never had a problem when diving
My last medical was long winded with peak flow readings taken over a period of 40mins after a session on the stepping machine - I am not as fit as I would like and was puffed, but easily reaced the minimun reading. |
