No, I've seen 6 pulmonologist's, 100's of tests. Alpha-1 may have contributed. Scar tissue has made a mess of the lungs. Currently treating aspergillus.

Can I ask why the scar tissue has made a mess of the lungs? Or what do you mean by that? I have a large scar too, I hope it doesn't cause any issues! I never heard of scar tissue causing issues. How are you doing now? I am not sure what aspergillus is. I'm going to have to look that up! I have also seen an immunologist that ran dozens of tests, besides the tests from my ID, doctor and regular doctor and they can't figure out why I got this either. Initially they thought I had lung cancer but the ruled that out which I'm so grateful for! I did smoke for many years and I do wonder if that's what caused it. I was a heavy smoker . Thanks for your input!!
