PFT normal in asthma: The big question is: Is the shortness of breath happening with activities that were well tolerated recently, or does the body just need time to condition itself for more strenuous activity? Spirometry (PFT) can be normal in asthma, because the lungs work normally until airways constrict. Methacoline challenge test can diagnose asthma in these situations.
