Hii,
I recently had CT of whole abdomen, because I was having digestion issues and blood in stool,but everything was normal except it said that "Sections through lower chest reveal subsegmental atelectasis in postero basal segment of left lower lobe".And I also have shortness of breath.Then I met pulmonologist,did xray, spirometry,spo2
Xray was normal
Spirometry was normal
SPo2 was normal.
He said it is due to anxiety.I am patient of anxiety as well from 4-5 years.
So,what could be the cause?
