I've just had a spirometry test done, and the results are a bit confusing because there's no interpretation provided in the report. Plus, the reference ranges are different from what I've seen in my previous reports. I'm a bit worried and wondering if my results are normal. Could this mean I have asthma or some kind of obstruction?

I'm using Combihale FF 500 now and I'm feeling some vibrations in my chest. Could it be from the medication? I've been diagnosed with asthma and Foracort 200 isn't helping much. Is this something serious or just normal side effects?

I've been dealing with this tight feeling in my chest and rib pain whenever it's cold. A nurse mentioned it might be asthma or a bad cold allergy. They suggested ventolin tablets, but those just make me feel weak. What could be causing this and what should I consider doing about it?

I recently went for a chest X-ray and PFT test because I've been having some mild breathing issues. The ECG and echo came back normal, which is a relief. However, I did have COVID about 45 weeks ago, but it was pretty mild, just a 3-day fever and cold symptoms. I took all the necessary meds as prescribed after consulting a doctor. Should I still be concerned about these breathing issues, or is it likely just leftover effects from COVID even after so long?
