Great thread... great information. My father died from an asthma attack at the age of 62. Even though I poured over the autopsy report and learned it was from cardiac arrest, I didn't quite understand the mechanism of how/why until now.

Quick question: Although not an asthmatic myself, I have twice in my life had "asthma-like" symptoms, both times were when I was in very hot, dry temps (triple digits, no humidity). Is that abnormal? I see someone else here posting cold weather as a trigger.

Thanks,
