thank you for your responce, I want would like to know if anyone know which is worse obstructed or restrictive, I have moderate restriction what does that mean is it reversable could it be coursed by this congetion than you.
Hi, Yes you could have a restriction from being overweight. I don't see anywhere on your test results for TLC or DLCO. They would help. Here is a web site with lots of helpful people, and if you ask this question there Im sure you will get lots of answers all in the same day. Keep checking back here for the dr. answers too, because they are very helpful and great. Please check this site out and post here also. http://www.copd-international.com/COPD/forum.htm
Im sorry, I meant to also post in the respiratory forum for dr. this one is for patient to patient. The dr. one is above these ones.
