@firefighter66. I'm not sure what your test results mean and hope you asked or will ask the doctor who ordered it to explain the results to you. I went back and read my SNIFF test results. I had no movement of my left diaphragm during regular breathing and paradoxical movement with the SNIFF deep rapid breathing, which indicated my left diaphragm was paralyzed. The report was that direct, which yours wasn't. I hope you get the help you need and deserve soon! Take care. Nancy
