Good News on my health.

by jaqui . Updated 12 years ago

ok, definition first:
fev1 = Forced Expressed Volume ( of air ) in 1 second.

July 2nd my spirometry results: fev1 31/38 pre medication / post medication
TODAY [ just before seeing respirologist ] my fev1 48/68 [ pre/post meds ]
that is a 17% improvement in airflow baseline and a 30% improvement with medications in last 7 months.:)

still legally handicapped though, the fev1 is below 50 without my meds.
