Spirometry looks normal-to-healthy - no response to bronchodilators, normal ventilatory function. X-ray shows that lungs are A Bit Fucked (bronchovascular definition?) but ascribes this to asthma. GP is pretty convinced that this isn't asthma coz it's not chronic reversible etc etc, despite family history, so is trying me on a month's worth of expensive anti-histamines to see what happens. I asked about drug interactions & effects on mood and he checked for me there & then; looks to be fine but I have permission to discontinue at any point I deem appropriate with a request that I e-mail him if I do so. MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR, etc.

Oh, I hope it helps. I want good breathing for you.

I use a respirator when I mix glazes and such. I went overboard and got the filters that do fumes, too. I smell nothing but sweet air when I wear it. I wonder if such a thing would be practical for you, at least to get past the smokers at the door. Mine is from the US, but I know British have their own styles.

I'm glad you have a good doctor on this, and I hope that the antihistamines step up and say "OK, on the job now" and help you breathe.

My spirometry had a reading of 68... Ineed to go back and see what that actually means, but the doctor discussed carrying a bronchodilator spray.
