In my test, the doctor states hyperinflation and air trapping. My TLC is high (129% of predicted) and RV is very high as well (143%) but my RV/TLC ratio is within normal limits. (111% of predicted) ...would this still support a diagnosis of air trapping?
Also my FRC and TLC are both high, but my FRC/TLC ratio is within normal limits. would this still support their diagnosis of hyperinflation?
Is it possible that i just have abnormally giant lungs for my age and height?
my FEV1/FVC is normal 83.52% or 102% of predicted.
Results say:
No evidence of airflow obstruction
FEV1/FVC ratio is normal by GOLD standard indicating an absence of COPD
High RV and TLC indicative of air trapping.
