Spirometry but no reversibility needed?

Hi All, I've just been for my spirometry and it was different and new to me... took some effort lol, first the reversibility part was not added. Then after I called them and ensured that I needed it apparently the consultant added it on which was great!!! However, once I'd finished the test I was told it was just not needed as this was only done I they couldn'tget the readings and in my case we got all the readings needed, therefore wouldn't be done?? I did about 4 different tests and 3/4 goes on each! She said id done well on the test as in performing them, she couldn't see anything urgent on there either... should I still be worried or?? Is this likely not to be asthma related or copd?? I have to call in a few week's to get the results but I'm just asking to see if any one knows anything?

As replies on your other post show, it could mean literally anything - you need to wait and see what they say to you based on your results. I know that sounds unhelpful but other people saying "well it could mean this or that" or "mine meant this..." is literally irrelevant to your results.

Not what you're looking for?
