Scott,

Its interesting those symptoms go away with your depression. I seem to remember hearing that there was a connection between asthma and serotonin. There is an antidepressant from overseas called tianeptine that is not only effective for anxiety and depression but also asthma. Tianeptine ironically increases the uptake of serotonin. Its mechanism of antidepressant action though is probably through cortisol reduction or by way of increasing norepinephrine in parts of the brain.
