I'm really worried because I had an allergic bronchitis attack about 5 years ago, and now it feels like the same thing happened again last night. My breathing airways got blocked, and I had this wheezing sound coming from my chest the whole time. I couldn't sleep at all. The last time this happened, I used an Albuterol inhaler to get through it. Should I stick with that again, or is there something else I should do?

I just got my x-ray results back and it says there's prominence of broncho markings in both of my lungs. I'm currently dealing with bronchitis and taking medication for it. Is there a chance this condition could be reversed? Also, I decided to quit smoking right after seeing the x-ray. Would love to know your thoughts on all this!

I'm trying to figure out if I might have asthma. In the mornings, my peak flow is around 450, but it jumps to 600 after I take two puffs of duolin. The chest X-ray and CT scan look normal, but the PFT results show early small airway obstruction with a PEF of 2575 or PEFR pred at 70. They also indicated mild obstruction with an FEV1FVC of 95 and FVC pred at 80. What does all this mean? I'm really not sure and could use some guidance.

Spirometry and pulmonary function tests are advised to the patient.
