First PFT (pulmonary function test): What can I expect?

Posted by 19rose63 @19rose63, 2 days ago

I have my first PFT scheduled for Aug 17. What can I expect? What questions should I ask? When will I get the results?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the COPD: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease Support Group.

Lots of breathing with face mask. Hold your breath excel deep and then do it all again after nebulizer. Will measure lung capacity-blood oxygen level-etc.
