Frequently Asked Questions

What does this quiz measure?
It reviews breathing symptoms and risk factors that may resemble patterns often associated with asthma or COPD. It also includes items on symptom variability, persistent changes, exposures, and urgent warning signs.
Can the results diagnose asthma or COPD?
No. The results are for self-check purposes only and cannot diagnose asthma, COPD, or other lung or heart conditions.
How long does it take, and how many questions are included?
It includes 15 questions and takes about 10 minutes to complete. Time may vary based on symptom history.
How should responses be selected if symptoms change from day to day?
Select the option that best reflects the most typical pattern over recent weeks or months. If symptoms vary widely, base answers on the periods when symptoms are most noticeable.
When is urgent medical care needed?
Seek emergency help now for severe trouble breathing, blue or gray lips or face, new confusion, or significant chest pain. Do not wait for results if these symptoms are present.

Do I Have COPD or Asthma Quiz - Symptoms and Signs

Could your breathing symptoms resemble patterns often associated with asthma or COPD? This free 15-question self-check considers symptom variability, persistent changes, relevant exposures, and urgent warning signs. It cannot diagnose either condition, and asthma and COPD can overlap or have other causes. Discuss recurring symptoms with a doctor or respiratory specialist. If you are struggling to breathe, turning blue or gray, becoming confused, or having significant chest pain, seek emergency help now.
