everybodys FEV1....

Kelly,
We were looking at the FEV1, not the FEV1/FVC.
The FEV1 is how much air you can blast out in 1 second
The FEV1/FVC compares your 1st second to your total exhaled volume,
so if your FEV1 is low and your FVC is also low, your FEV1/FVC might actually look pretty normal (kind of deceiving)....
so look at your FEV1

I'm a 26 year old female and my PFT's as of hmmm the last time I did them he he he uhmmm,, they were about 24% I'm thinking. I decided I don't want to do them anymore. 24% is not cute, who can stay cheery and humerous with such unfashionable numbers I ask you?

Sean and Liz repopulating the world....I'm shaking in my boots.......scary thought........

We would be like Lord Vader and the Emperor, making everyone bow to our reign!
