phrenic nerve question

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

I have a question about the phrenic nerve involvement. Yesterday, I had a

fluoroscopy of the lungs and a pulmonary function test. I do not have the

results from the fluoroscopy but the respiratory therapist did fill me in on the

PFT. She was able to tell that I have lung damage from my asthma, which was

expected. But, after the breathing treatment, test scores should have gone up

and mine went significantly lower. She said my lungs could get very weak.

I have to meet with my doctor next week. Is this a sign of phrenic nerve

involvement?
