I'm a bit worried after my spirometry test for a job preemployment check. The doctor mentioned something about a mild restriction. Does this mean I might be considered unfit for the job? I've attached my report to get some clarity on this. Can you help me understand what it all means?

View allI'm having a bit of a dilemma. I was prescribed Montax FX and Pulmoclear for ten days, and they seemed to work great at first. But now that I've finished the course, the same symptoms have returned. I'm really worried. What do you think could be going on? Should I be doing something different or trying another medication? I'm feeling a bit lost and would appreciate some advice.
It seems that the symptoms returned after completing the prescribed course of Montax-FX and Pulmoclear. This could indicate that the underlying issue wasn't fully addressed or there may be an underlying condition that requires further evaluation. I would recommend revisiting the doctor for a follow-up to reassess the situation and adjust the treatment plan accordingly.
