Is this asthma?

Here lately, I have been coughing like crazy. It seems to happen most at night when I'm just sitting on the couch watching TV. I don't get it at all when I'm out running errands, going to bed, or even during the day when I'm on the couch watching TV (occasionally, but not near as often or near as bad as night).

I'll be relaxing at night and in this coughing fit for a couple hours, but as soon as I get up and do anything or go to bed, it's gone.

The best way I can describe it is it feels like I am running outside in the winter. Like when it's really cold and the air is thin. That's kind of how it feels when I'm breathing and coughing.

The coughing is a combination of a weezy cough and a deap hearty cough.

I had asthma when I was in elementary, but it seemed to just go away I guess. I really don't remember.
