Had a spirometery test showed copd i am 36 male but have nasal congestion and acid reflux could this be due to this problem have to have a retest?

COPD vs Asthma: At times very hard to distinguish which of which, spirometry alone cannot differentiate, overlap is present. Other factors such as age, you are still young for full picture of COPD, other associated problems as allergy, or hay fever, which you might have, also reflux, all affect the diagnosis. Full lung function testing is essential not just spirometry together with thourough history and exam
