Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
According to X-ray reports your lungs are hyperaerated means lungs are expanded with more aeration.
Both domes of diaphragms are flattened due to hyperexpansion of lungs.These findings suggest emphysematous changes in lungs.
There is atheromatous changes in aorta which is age related normal findings.
Heart size is normal.
You should consult pulmonologist due to emphysematous changes in lungs.
Get well soon.
Take Care
