Has anyone had experience with Crushed Glass Syndrome?

@artist01 Are you sure they didn't say "ground glass opacities" - this is a typical finding on a lung x-ray during or after pneumonia or another lung infection. It simpply describes a gray area in the lung where "artifacts" of the infecton remain. This can be left-behind mucus, a bit of scar tissue, enlarged airways...
Usually, but not always, it disappears in a few weeks to a few months. Sometimes, it can be a sign of another lung problem. If it doesn't improve after several months, or you continue to have breathing problems, the doc may order a CT scan.
I hope this helps you to relax and continue to recuperate.

I went in for a "saved by the scan " ct because I had been a former smoker and I had to have the procedure redone 3 months later because I had "ground glass" in my lungs which prevented clear images in some areas. They said this is often from a disease like covid-19, and when tested i found out I had covid--so after 3 months it was redone, covid had cleared up and the images were good. Prayers for you and hoes for quick resolution.

Hi Sue. Thanks for the clarity regarding this lung condition. I'm not sure what might have been said at the time the doctors discussed it because I just "overheard" their initial discussion and wasn't privy to anything further. At the time, I was in an emergency situation for something else (as usual!). This week, I had a short visit with the doctor who attends at my Assisted Living residence and when she listened to my lungs she confirmed that I still have a problem. She called it interstitial pulmonary something or other. (?sorry) She said if she were my doctor she'd refer me to a lung specialist but since I'm not her patient, she'll leave that to my own doc, whom I see next week.
I did have pneumonia recently.
I'll have all this explained to me properly next week, Sue, when I see my doctor. I was pretty sick through all this and the lung problem was not the main issue.
Your response explains a lot, and I only hope this goes away soon. I don't want any more ailments! lol

@jpm16 Thanks very much for responding to my query. This is an interesting subject which I'll be researching soon, for sure. I had pneumonia at the time and was put on antibiotics, and was also tested for Covid, which was negative.
I appreciate your good wishes and hope this is resolved soon.
Warm regards, Laurie
