Thanks so much for your response. I've been trying to figure this out for a long time.
Did you ever get any help on this? I have some "similar" issues, especially re. being non-smoker and having breathing problems that are NOT being helped by asthma medications. My doctor says its asthma, but I'm not convinced cos nothing's helping, and he's in no rush to do more tests.
If you got help or have ideas, let me know!!
