Glynis, it would wrong of anyone on here to look at your results and tell you what they mean. If you are confused by them if your practice has an Asthma nurse ask her to help you or if there is a asthma nurse specialist who works with your consultant, at a push you can ask your GP although mine bless him knows less about some aspects than me Asthma is always reversible maybe not much but under test conditions like you had you should have seen some improvement. as you showed no improvement they are right they should be looking at other things, there are many things that mimic asthma so it might take some time but they will get there in the end.
Good luck

Hey if you dont have asthma it will be good to find out what you do have. Hope your GP can help you understand the results it is frightening when you get them and cannot understand them.
Hi Glynis, hope you are ok?? My Son went through 2 years of the consultant saying is he isnt he regarding asthma, drove us nuts. He now has severe and difficult asthma. Mine is mild or they are not sure if asthma, borderline yet I'm on treble my normal preventer and have just had oral steroids upped, blue inhaler every 4 hours and a neb am and pm, yum!!
Take care
Love kate xxx

Asthma still a puzzle ?
Has anyone bought or got a NIOX VERO® for assessment and management of airway inflammation for asthma?
Not sure if I have asthma or not?
