Hi Dinah:
I also have problems with cold weather affecting my throat and breathing. The weather here for the last month has mostly been below normal temps., not above freezing with a lot of single digit weather along with below zero wind chill. It makes my mouth dry and throat hurts to swallow and becomes raspy and soar and makes me feel like I would if I had asthma, when I breathe. The breathing part apparently is coming from the swelling from the radiation and the rad doctor advises not to worry it can take up to a year for the swelling to subside.
