Pulm. said spiro. tests were "99% normal", but showed "slightly reduced lung capacity." he said "it's nothing to worry about." what does that mean?

Mgt: If you upload the test to your EMR, Healthtap physicians can provide a second opinion. It is probably normal. What is the current diagnosis? And your symptoms?
