I feel shortness of breath when go in pollution and also when clouds or raining outside. I have undergone pft test the results are normal. Fvc is 98% and fev1/fvc ratio is 110%. Do I have asthma. My doctor has given me a tablet of asthma supradyn and also a rotahaler. Pft results are very good though doctor gave asthma treatment. Do I have asthma or not?

Dear User, Even if pft is normal, it doesn't exclude asthma. Bronchial hyperactivity can be there. Also get your serum ige levels and a dlco done continue medication and follow up with the reports of ige and dlco also manage any underlying acidity or running nose or sinusitis as they can worsen asthma.
