I'm curious about something. I've had asthma allergic rhinitis for the past two years, but before all that started, I was able to donate blood. Do you think it's still okay for me to give blood now?

Could you help me understand my spirometry results? The report mentions predominant small airways obstruction, but I dont have any symptoms. I attached the report. What does this mean and should I be concerned?

if you don't have symptoms then stay fine no need to worry

I'm having some trouble with my breathing that's been going on for about 10-12 days. I'm constantly feeling the need to take deep breaths, yet exercising like jogging or using stairs doesnt seem to be a problem. It's odd because I'm yawning a lot during the day, and it seems to get worse at night. I'm really puzzled and a bit worried about what might be causing this. Could you help me understand what's going on?

ENT opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm having real trouble with breathing, a sharp pain in my chest, and I've lost my appetite. I was told it might be gastritis, but honestly, I don't think that's it because the meds aren't helping at all. Could it be something else? What should I do?
