Mugu,

If you are 24, you should consider running and just keep pushing yourself a little harder to build up a stronger body. I think everyone largely ignored WhoIsRight's comment...people in Japan survive hours of keiko + kakarigeiko in weather that is barely breathable to begin with...I'm not familiar with the extent of your medical condition but you can't be the only one facing the heat.
I'm a sick person all my life, I get sick very easily. Trust me, I want to be stronger. Everytime I Kendo. I won't stop unless I really really have to, such as I am about to pass out and my sensei doesn't want me to pass out. I have gotten stronger than when I first started Kendo and I started Kendo because of I wanted to be stronger. I wasn't able to even go through the suburi session without bogu when I first started. Before this past 3 weeks, I was able to do more. I am only speculating maybe it is the heat, maybe it's just I'm allergic, and asthma + pollens is not good. If I'm such a whiner as you kinda indicated, I wouldn't be doing Kendo in the first place. And would've quit a long time ago...
