I have been having shortness of breath. I have rhinitis/sinusitis and anxiety.Had an ekg and chest xrays. Blood work was all normal. 1st chest xray is showing cloudiness/inflammation.Suggesting COPD. Blood pressure normal, heart rate and pulse ox all good. Would an asthma/panic attack show inflammation/cloudiness in an xray?
Let me know you mere cloudiness not suggestive copd .. Chest x ray findings non specific in copd with prominent bronchovascular marking, over inflation etc.....
Yes by rhinitis and secondary respiratory inflammation you can have dyspnea .. Morever stress also lead dyspnea by panic attack.....
Avoid stress and treat symptomatically. If need, nebulization might given..... Take decongestent and antihistaminic drug. Steam inhalation... If need antibiotic taken.....
Here all I want is your respiratory auscultation and spirometry for pulmonary function test that will give idea about asthma or copd or restrictive lung disease....
Hope my answer will helpful to you. Regards; Dr.Parth goswami
