Is Difficulty In Breathing Due To Bronchitis Or Gas?
im a 22 year old smoker, have been smoking for seven years,recently i was diagnosed with acute bronchitis, i was having breathing difficulties, but i get the feeling its a gas related problem , i had a spirometry done, which says my FEF 25-75 was 36 % of the predicted value , Fev 1 73 % and FEV 3 97 %, can this happen due to acidity, also my doctor says it was an allergy problem and it wont happen again, can i smoke again after recovery ? after 2 weeks of formonide 200 my test results were FEF 25-75 was 73% , FEV 1 96% and FEV 3 111 %, i want to know is this gas related, could it be or is it bronchitis ?

Hey
first of all please don't start smoking again.
This bronchitis episode, consider it as red signal.
And all this changes of values in PFT after Formonide shows that it was lung related.
