Hi . You need to know what number see is talking about. Check out the web site I posted. You need to get a copy of the PFT. I made a chart in excel to compare my test every six months. they are always going lower Phttp://members.tripod.com/noairtogo/pft.htm Kennelly wrote: MB and or anyone else who

I think what MB said is what it is. The diffusing capacity of the lungs is the correct #. What is yours. I will look up the web site. If it makes sense to me. These medical terms are really kickers for me. k Ill wrote: Hi . You need to know what number see is talking about. Check out the web site I posted. You need to get a copy of the PFT.
