Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion you are having asthma. As PFT shows clear cut improvement in post bronchodilator test. And this improvement is the diagnostic feature for asthma.
And combimist l is having levosalbutamol and ipratropium. And both are bronchodilator. So you should definitely take this. This will give you symptomatic relief .
But you should consult pulmonologist and start maintainance treatment for asthma to prevent such attacks.
So take combimist l and get appointment of pulmonologist for maintenance treatment.
