I am a country girl with nice clean country lungs. Been in a very dirty city. Within hours of getting here devloped a slight cough and the feeling that I am growing mold (very moldy, damp, polluted city) in my upper bronchioles and a slight sore throat with no redness. Saw a doc who said it looks like I am sensitive to the air pollution. No trouble breathing...just a tiny cough...did a peak flow meter test and managed 450 with a cough at the end of the expiration. Head is clear....I don't feel sick at all...just this occasional little cough...no fever...I feel fine. If I were sick, I wouldn't think of diving...but I don't seem to be sick...just sensitive to hydrocarbons...and there aren't any in my air tank.Dive schedualed for next two days ...should I worry at all about diving with this? Thanks :doctor:
