question: I have asthma. I was diagnosed in 1996. I have coughing fits at times. I dont cough so much laying down if I have a fan on me, more so without a fan. I am around a friend who smokes (I do not smoke). Hear Failure came up once from a friend, but some of the symptoms fit and others just seem like normal asthma. Im 31 yrs old (32 soon), 52, and roughly around 205 lbs.. I am a type 1 hypertension candidate. I am over weight, but Im working on losing it. I guess my question is, if I lay down, flat on my back with the fan and Im not coughing or not coughing much (as apposed to without the fan on), is this just my asthma?
