A member asked:
What information do i have to bring along to do the pulmonary function test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Basic: To do the test, no information is needed except height weight and smoking history. It would probably help the treating physician if he had an accurate medical history, specifically of lung and heart disease, exposures, current and past medications, and your insurance information.
