First I want to say hello and thank you for even reading. It takes time and energy to even reply to anyone. I know you don't owe me any favors. I am just letting this get to me and its a Saturday and I will not have any answers until atleast Tuesday.
In 2008, I went to the ER because I had neck pain. A cervical CT scan without contrast revealed lordisis but then added in the bottom of the report it said- Partial Visualization of posterior fossa without marked findings;lung apices with irregular attenuation likely fibrosis.
Now I just read this and its 2011. Almost four years has past and no doctor ever mentioned it. Infact they didn't even add it to the impression at the end. I have no breathing problems. I am breathing fine right now. I do have constipation issues but i breathe well. I get a cough here and there but like anyone else. I have suffered with bronchio-asthma since i was a kid but i would only get it when i had a cold. Its been a year and half since i got asthma. I did live in a basement for a while and it was old but even then i didn't really have breathing problems, just more sneezing. I did get an MRI of my cervical spine recently and it did not show anything but i read a MRI is not helpful when viewing the lungs. Fibrosis does not run in my family. Anyway, I will look into why that was placed and not even pursued but i want to know from anyone if this is a normal finding and if i am just overacting? I do suffer from anxiety and I am not a fighter. I don't even know if i can beat any illness. I deal with Chiari Malformation as it is. I wish you good health and happiness. Please help me.
