It is possible for child asthma sufferers to outgrow their condition as they get older.

It is likely you have grown out of it as your lungs have fully developed. Many people do and never have any more problems with it. Look after youself and don't smoke.

Yes, things like that do seem to go away and then come back. My husband has experienced the same thing.

if you have the tendency to have asthma, you will have it for life. you can only control the symptoms but it wont go away.
