Does incessant coughing eventually lead to wheezing.  I have been diagnosed
with asthma but I doubt the diagnosis.  I occasionally wheeze after
exercising and had some heavy wheezing when I had pneumonia two month's ago.
My PCP instructed me to take Advair and Singulair as preventive meds but
they are so expensive.  Opinions please.

Try Buteyko first.  There's enough information around for free to help
you with your problem.  Have a look out our totally non-commercial web

Goodness, Petey must have arisen from the wrong side of
his crypt this morning.  Easy now, that's the boy, take deep
deep breaths...now exhale gently...now repeat after us: "I think
I can, I think I can."  There you are.  Now go back to your own
little newsgroup.  Good boy.

Peter: Name a medical orginization that has endorsed B* as a safe and
effective treatment for asthma.

B* is nothing more than just another quack 'cure.'  Stay away from it.

Quackwatch (www.quackwatch.com) has it on its "questionable" list with
a pointer to one study:

The study yielded inconclusive results.

Incessant coughing does not cause wheezing but asthma can
cause both. It sound slike you have asthma. Why do you doubt
the diagnosis?

P.S. You would be best advised to put Kolb in your killfile.
He is a net loon at best and a scam artist at worst.
