Is it part of my Asthma ?

[HumanPotatoe]

When i run my legs go quite numb, ive fallen over because of it where i simply cant run any more. and i dont even have trouble breathing , just my legs go numb and sometimes i get pretty shaky.Ive had chest pains before but no doctor knew what it was.  Also when i run up my stairs at home, im so out of breath and my legs go funny again. I always thought it was just something to do with my asthma so is it ?

I've never heard of numb legs being a part of the symptomology of asthma.  I recommend you get referred to a neurologist about this.  See private message for more info..

Hello,
Legs going numb when you run is not a symptom of asthma but at your age it can be due to anemia or vitamin B 12 deficiency. The other possibility is of a thyroid disease but it can be ruled out by means of a thyroid profile especially TSH.

Till you consult a physician and get these tests done, eat a healthy diet and take some iron and vitamin B12 supplements.
