Hi

Does anyone have any experience of having had a FeNO test to measure airways inflammation?

I have had a couple - takes 5 mins, all you have to do is breathe into a device at a constant rate - the device will show you when you are doing it right. The one my hospital uses has a picture of a cloud that goes up or down depending on how hard you blow - you have to keep the cloud in the middle of the screen. It's a lot less annoying than spirometry.
