its not a side effect.But many people with Asthma do suffer with it. It is a genetic link. Hayfever and psoriasis are also common amongst asthma sufferers.They are a inflammatory illness the skin reacts by producing excess skin cells and the lungs produce excess mucus and the air sacs constrict.

If an autistic person has eczema or asthma is that linked with autism?
No autism is not related to eczema and asthma. Eczema and asthma are related to each other, but they are not connected to autism in any way. However, autism does appear to be more common in families with a history of atopy; that is, eczema, asthma and other allergies. There is significant evidence to suggest that autism is possibly an inflammatory genetic condition, the development of which is enhanced (or improved) by environmental factors such as diet, and exposure to various environmental toxins and irritants, and various poisons. Autism has a strong genetic component - 90% of paired identical twins will both have autism. However, 10% won't, indicating that environmental factors are clearly at play.

Can you be denied health insurance coverage if you have asthma?
Yes - Aetna just did it to us because our daughter has asthma. I was so shocked. They stated the reason that her combined conditions of asthma and eczema (yes mild eczema - at least for her) "exceed the allowable limit provided by our underwriting guidelines" As of January 1st, 2014, this is no longer permissible. No existing condition can be a reason for declining coverage. This is one of the changes that the PPACA (ObamaCare) made.
