1) Do you know if anything in my Lung Function Test indicate much dead tissue?
I wouldn't know what proportions I have of Asthma, Emphysema & Bronchitis!

a) Born with weak lungs. NEVER been a smoker.
b) SpO2 is 92% to 96%
c) FEF2575 max 20% Pred. even if blown up by max cortisones.
d) ELA Estimated Lung Age 200%
e) FEV1 44%, FVC 87%, FEV1//FVC 50% of Pred.
f) FIV1, 104%, FIV1/FIVC 123% of Pred.
I also wondered about HIGH readings!

Any lay help pls?
