Hey Lar,
My methacholine challenge was positive despite the fish oils.
The funny thing is I didn't feel significantly short of breath. My FEV1 % went down 24%--which is supposedly quite significant-- early in the test and so they had to stop the test and give a brochodilator.
Any thoughts as to why I didn't feel overly short of breath? Maybe just a little bit, but I frequently feel like that. My baseline was completely normal. I've never had a severe asthma attack. In fact I've never used a bronchodilator until today.
