Have you talked to the docs at Diver's Alert Network? Some asthmatics
can dive, but the run of the mill doc will give an instant NO if asked.

DAN is at http://www.diversalertnetwork.org/ They have an 800 number
for questions like yours.

Nope - already checked it out. Besides, I have some experience in the
area and pretty much knew it wasn't all that good an idea.

It's a direct result of some meds that I take for my RA and OA - can't
be helped.

I flunked the asthma test miserably.

What are you taking for OA? I am on Mobic, 15mg a day. It is a wonder drug
but it can have problems like Vioxx and Celebrex.
