Alice asked:


My chest is sort of tight, but I feel really lightheaded. Been cleaning the attic where I’m encountering a lot of dust, which I’m allergic to. Had to take a short break b/c I feel kind of lightheaded. I’m not gasping for air or anything. Just tight in the chest.

Is it common that an asthma attack could happen and you just feel a little tightness and also lightheaded?
