See a good Chest physician around so that he can diagnose your lung condition correctly. You have a restrictive disease on the PFT and you have been put on bronchodilators, sounds completely ridiculous. It feels that either you have an eosinophilic lung disease which will require steroids or a tropical eosinophilia again which will certainly not help with bronchodilators.
