my asthma seems to have gotten better since i started cycling. I've lost almost 40 lbs. which no doubt has some affect on the situation. I also have allergies. I use a symbacort inhaler morning and evening. Albuterol as an emergency inhaler. I don't know what PED means, but I'm assuming that it's some kind of doping that is tested for. As I'm no where near being a competitive racer, I find that breathing is much more important.

I had asthma all my life and the older I get the better I get, I have both albuterol and Flovent the generic Advair, which I find to be best product to control my Asthma and prevent any flareups.
With that being said, I need my inhaler maybe 1 or twice a year, don't really bother to carry it with me, since the flovent prevents my asthma from flaring up
