Ok silly question really but I am a stickler for details. Does anyone know why there are two different PEF Scales? There is the EU and the Wright-McKerrow. When I put ""male"" in the values were hardly different at all but when I tried to find out what I ""should"" be getting it came out nearly 50ml different.
Dont get me wrong I realise we are all different, i was just wondering why they were different and which one you all refer to (and why)...

Ok can answer my own question, lol God Bless Google!
So basically my old PF meter was Wright-McKerrow and my new one is EU so that would be why I am blowing slightly less than my old PEF max of low 500s, now am blowing 450 when feeling well (after meds) Morning is 320/340 atm and then midday is 450 ( ) mostly thanks to long-acting reliever. Was getting worried that my lungs werent going to get over this easily, but I am not too far off where I should be! Yey!
