Do i have asthma

I have had problems with having coughs and always end up with virul or chest infection at this time of year. Also i have had times where i find it hard to vreathe such as when im upset but not always. My doctor doesnt seem concered atol but its bothering me now. I have a chest infection that i cant seem to get rid of and when i wake up in the moring it hurts to breath.
I dont know if it is relevent but i do suffer really bad exzema and i have food allergies aswell.

It sounds like you do have asthma. Mood swings do make asthma worse, and if you have eczema, the likelihood of getting asthma is really high as they do come hand in hand.  I should know, because I have asthma, hay fever and eczema all together.  When I was first diagnosed as having asthma, I had a cold that lasted for weeks until I started on a course of inhalers. Take my advice and go see another doctor before you do have an attack serious enough to be in the emergency room of your local hospital.
