At least you got a result. I did the test this morning and there wasn't the briefest comment made, let alone get a printout or access to the data.

I do think they could try and explain to us after all its our health instead of saying make a apointment the gp will have the results in 2 weeks when my gp is only 2 doors from the test seem silly to wait 2 weeks

That is so annoying, my nurse was kind enough to write down my results. My next COPD check up is on Monday 24th May.

Sorry Dyson, those numbers don't mean anything to me I'm afraid. I always ask for my own copy of results so I can compare with the last. The nurses/docs are usually happy to explain them too. Looks like you were unlucky with your nurse 😳 I wonder if a call to one of the BLF nurses on Monday may help? Tc 🌻
