Lung pain in middle of night or in morning....

[babygrant]

I've had this problem for as long as I can remember. It doesn't scare me, but I'm wondering if it's normal.

If I wake up in the middle of the night or when I wake up in the morning, if I yawn or take a deep breathe, my lungs hurt really bad. Feels like they've shrunk in my sleep and it almost feels like they tear or something when I yawn. After I've been awake for about an hour, I can yawn perfectly fine. Anyone else get this?

LOL - its me again, I think you must be my identical twin.

I have the same exact symptom and was diagnosed with asthma. I do think the diagnosis is correct. However, I don't treat it because it doesn't cause me that much of a problem and I don't like the way the inhaler makes me feel.

It got better when I moved from Texas to the Pacific Northwest, so I suspect its mild allergies or something that trigger the constriction.

Are you stalking me?

I've never had any sort of asthma...but that's interesting.
