is it just speculation hun? I had asthma but grew out of it by the time i was 13. To be honest iv never heard of calpol bieng linked to asthma but completly understand why you are reluctant to give it to lo. Best thing is to ask the doc what its all about and see if there is another medicine that you could giv lo that doesnt have paracetamol in it? sorry not much help really xx
