Close Anonymous Unfriend Friend Requested Friend Load More Close Destination Page Area Group Destination Content Title Title Article Type Copy comments Last week my doctor called me and told me I have Asthma-COPD overlap syndrome. I messaged her because I wanted to see the detailed test results but she has been out of the office all week. Finally today I managed to get a copy of the test results from the hospital and the results say: Pulmonary Function Diagnosis: Normal Pulmonary Function Test. I'm really really confused now. I even checked the values using https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/spirometry/refcalculator.html and they're normal! Is there any reason to think I actually have COPD?
