Fvc 145 per cent

[lynisa48]

Hi

This was my fvc results last week fev1 127 per cent ok with fev1 but gas anyone ever had such a high fvc.

Wondering if this high is as bad as being low lol, BLF nurse was surprised as well especially as I have a very large lung bulla, any ideas?

Hi and welcome. Sorry, I can't help with the Fev1. I don't know enough about it. I'm sure someone will be along soon that can answer your question.x

Hi Lynisa I had a very large Bullae in 2005 it covered 50% of my right lung and had to have that 50% of my lung removed, it was performed at Guy's in London by Loic Lang-Luzdunski and was completely successful, the staff on Dorcus ward were fantastic. If your Bullae is 30% or more you should be offered surgery if so accept with open arms. Keep positive.
