Confirmed diagnosis finally

Hi guys. Big updates on me today. On 12 February I went back to my country to carry all the exams for suspected asthma. Well, spyrometry, feno were normal, as I am taking clenil 4 puffs per days from 23 January. But impulse oscillometry IOS test came out abnormal with moderate peripheral airway dysfunction with significant reversibility. After salbultamol there were significant response from lungs! I also carried allergologic test and found out that my asthma is a 'non allergic asthma'. So it is not from dust, mould, dog or cats(I have a strong allergy to some kind of plant in summer but never had asthma attack (anyway it started getting worse this winter) but from other causes such infections, exercises and my rinitis as well contribute to this and other factors. I also know it runs in my family so it is genetic as well :( So specialist told me to carry out with clenil for the next 40 days and then to decrease at two puffs a day. I wanted to share with you these important news. Anyway today not too much well, feel breathless 😞

I don’t have allergic asthma, but I certainly react on some irritants! Bear that in mind, that things like dust can irritate even if it is not allergy. You can still get a reaction. I do to all sorts, like smoke, scents etc, etc.
