When I was tight in my chest over the summer, we had a hard time

determining whether or not it was asthma, because there was no

wheezing or change in peak flow. I just felt short of breath and like

I had a belt around my chest. I am still not certain if it was a

asthma flare up or not but it coincided with the start of reflux for me.
