Well I had my PFT's today at the hospital. The only one I could not do was the exercise one because they don't have equipment there. I also had 2 blood tests done to see my oxygen levels. One when I walked in then one after being on oxygen for 30 minutes.
The guy who did my tests said that my results of the tests were higher (good in this case) than the average person, who doesn't have asthma. He said had I not told him I had asthma, he never would have guessed I had it because of my test results.
So he's forwarding them to my doc who prescribed them and I called him about not being able to do the exercise one, but he said to wait what the results say before we decide if we need it or not.
I hope I don't need to do it because this has been such a hassle already. Also I worked out this morning like an hour before the tests, but I guess that's not the same as doing it right after exercising.
