CT scan: Please ask your doctor to evaluate you with a CT scan of the chest which is much more detailed and accurate compared to a plain chest xray.

See below: I agree, a CT scan would be the next thing to check. Also, it's possible it's not your lung. It may be musculoskeletal. And it may be completely unrelated to your wheezing.
