I have been treated with drugs for asthma for a year now. I have all the symptoms and get regular attacks which require use of a nebulizer in the doctor’s office, but the doctor has never done a spirometry. Is this unusual?

    The efficacy of the patient is enough to bronchodilator drugs and measure the patient is enough to bronchodilator drugs and history taken from the patient is enough to dx asthma.
    The patient is enough to dx asthma.
    Asthma.
