I dont know who Mr. Mathew is here.
Well - if it makes sense not to wear sweater, it also makes sense to have the a/c set at something comfortable for everyone. A few people will have to adjust by wearing thick clothes.. or sweater :icon1:

Dear Ambika,
I completely agree with the suggestion of Asha Mathew. I am also a asthma patient. I do wear sweater during rainy & winter season and I always cover my ears with cotton.
Its really good & helpful to implement the above.

One more solution :
Paste/place the papers on hole of AC air/blow on the top of your seat(in case of centralised AC).
Chill air not contact you directly.
regards
Rahul
Note: Take office boy help for placing the papers.

Dear Ambika/Asha
I understand the Air conditioned environment is a posing a health problem to you. Having encountered a similar experience with my near ones, I would like to share my experience which may be useful to you.
The real cause for severity of asthma can not be A/C environment alone, there can be factors such as stress, dust and physical weekness etc., it differs from case to case.
You can also check it up with your physician on this.
In fact A/C environment ensures a dust free atmosphere which may be good to some asthmatic patients.
Meanwhile, the a/c has become common nowadays; you can not avoid it now. Instead try to find out methods to overcome it. You can talk to your management to ensure a comfortable working atmosphere. Because, in an ordinary tropical condition a room temperature between 22-25 will be ideal, where the moisture will be less and sweating will also be less.
You may be suffering due to a lower temperature set by your organization, because we, Indian have a general tendency that A/C should be less than 20 deg.
Besides, It is neither my intention to disagree with you nor I do possess any qualification of medical / biological science; I am just sharing an experience.

Hi Ambika,
Nobody has a right to force you to live in unhealthy conditions while working for the office.Frankly discuss with the management in requestive tone giving relevant solutions as per your office structure like having partitioned cabin etc. If problem is not resolved, do write again.
