Hi mackiedon Hmmm bit of a difficult one to say really my frind because it depends, on what your tests were for and did you have other tests done. Has your GP requested another one to be done ?. The best person to ask this to is your GP I think because I think he is the only one who can answer this question. Sorry if that's not much help.

Hi mackiedon

I had to look up ABG test as I didn't know what it was although I have had a couple done during asthma/chest infection attacks.

I am not sure whether this test, (Arterial Blood Gas) is useful to fibro members in general although some do have breathing problems. Have you come to us by accident?

If so, no probs.

I would Google the normal range and see if that gives you your answer.

As the others have said if you could be more specific then we can look up some figures for you my friend?As this test can be used for a myriad of conditions of COPD, asthma and other lung diseases etc.
