What Do Small Cysts In A CT Scan Report Suggest?
I have been seeing my family doctor for my asthma and they found small cysts in my ct scan as well as scar tissue. I was coughing up small mat of blood in sputum and rocks. they diagnosed me with granulomatosis. I have pain constantly on my right chest area in ribs and under my breast. as well as my left lower rib area. today I coughed up a rock with skin tissue attached. I think there diagnosis is wrong. what is going on with my lungs

Hello,
I suggest you to consult your pulmonologist for TB culture and TB PCR of the sputum. Granulomatosis is a general term and it needs to be found out which type of granulomatosis is affecting the lungs.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
