Went to the allergist today! Wasn't expecting to get diagnosed with asthma.

Have to use an inhaler now for my chest and sinuses. Is this more from mold exposure or lyme?

Can mold cause asthma? Seems crazy to me.

Just another speed bump [Frown]

When the doctor told me I was like are you serious lol. I've never had a diagnosis that quick in my life!

Should I try and find a specialist if it is the mold causing it?

Yes, mold can cause Asthma. Aspergillus molds (grow on rotting vegetation) are notorious for this.
