Thank you for replying.
An infection was ruled out with bronchoscopy BAL negative for infection. Second PFT showed significant changes. Tree in bud is now spreading.
This CT was from a second opinion. Only changes from previous ct was from focal to scattered TIB and Mild Mosic to Moderate.

Regarding understanding PFT results, I found this brochure to be helpful (from Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation). Go to page 20 and see explanations.
