23F, 123lbs, 10 years daily smoking marijuana. For 3 years I've had chronic daily phlegm - like hocking up a loogie. I started getting chest pains and some shortness of breath after quitting smoking 2 months ago. I have been on Flovent inhaler for 2 months but nothing before this. My PFT seems indicative of copd (chronic bronchitis) but I have been told it is "probably" asthma. I am so confused and unsure what to think. I am trying to get as many opinions, knowledge as I can on this because I have had the worst anxiety thinking I could have chronic bronchitis. IGE, eosinophil, chest CT all normal. No allergies. I have made a pulmonology appointment but it is not for 3 months.
