If you are worried please go to your GP, even if it's just to put your mind at rest. Let us know how you get on. Take care 😊 xx Bernadette

Did you do a Spirometry test? If so what did they tell you?You will probably have a number of other tests when you see the respiratory specialist. The good news it that you have done the best thing by giving up smoking. That you are worried is natural but until the results and your consultation is over it would be very hard to give advice.
