bra rash allergic reaction

I saw several postings for Victorias secret bra rash from 2008.  I have been having bra rash symptoms including asthma last few months.  Should I have bras tested for formaldehyde?  Is there a class action suit pending anymore?  Why are these bras still for sale?  The last rash is from VS bra purchased June 30.

I am not as qualified to answer your question as it pertains to the skin reaction as a dermatologist would be...the asthma and formaldehyde link is however real.  Get rid of the bras in question and be sure you address your respiratory symptoms with your MD.  I have no idea about the legal issues..consult an attorney
