Impossible.paraseptal emphysema no smoke or wood stoves, fumes.had no issue with lungs before h1n1. ct scan clear in december 2008. h1n1 jab 11/24/2009?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not uncommon: To get changes of mild emphysema on ct as we age even in the absence of smoking. If you have no pulmonary symptoms of emphysema then i would not worry about the findings. If you do then lung function is best evaluated by a pulmonologist.
