[|AI|]  Hi, The report does not have any major abnormality. Management of asthma is usually based on clinical symptoms with pulmonary function test. Nowadays, many trials advocated sputum eosinophil as a tool for management of asthma and to determine the dose of steroid. The problem with sputum eosinophil is that most of the pathologists and laboratory technicians are acquainted with this. Many a times patient gives saliva as a sample of sputum. If you have clinical symptoms with Pulmonary function abnormalities then it's better to start management comprising inhalation steroid with long acting bronchodilator(MDI Forecourt 2 puffs twice daily as ex). However, I can not give a definite management based on sputum report and not seeing you clinically. You should better consult a pulmonologist. Hope, I satisfied your queries.
