Asthma or not?

I get a sudden really ichty throat and start coughing. Also my eyes get watery. Is this an asthma symptom?

No not typically. Normally Asthma patients have a wheeze.  Itchy throat and watery eyes sounds like allergies. You can take over the counter meds like Benadryl this type of med has antihistamine in it and it should stop your problems.

Sounds more like allergies to me.  Ask your doctor the next time you are in to see him though.

Take care and God bless.
