I am so confused. I've been reading posts about spirometry readings. Is it right that if you have some reversibility after using a inhaler during the test, then you have asthma?

Hi

It’s not conclusive, the reversibility test if satisfactory indicates asthma component.

You can have both.

Thanku for that stone-uk , just read it, think I probably have a asthma component, as I don't have full reversibility.

Hi that is generally the case but not always as it depends on other factors such as the severity of your asthma. Those who are severe probably won't have any reversibility. x
