I have a partially collapsed lung right now and have had bronchitis since July..!
Question: I haven't relly felt like singing in months because of my lungs.
What is really going on with me? Why can't the doctor heal my respiratory problems?
I am beyond miserable! I have a feeling in my throat like when you inhale a powder by accident. I feel like something is sitting on my chest. And I have the most productive cough my doctor has ever seen. He said he had never coughed up as much as me. Like at least 16 oz at once.
My granddaddy died of asbestosis and I'm scared I could be that sick or at least have chronic bronchitis like he did. My xray shows the ateletecsis (collapsed lung).
What does it sound like especially since I am always bronchil?

yup. you do have atelectasis and bronchitis. if you have asbestosis, you probably got it from your environment .
the best way is to get a pulmonologist. follow everything he/she says. there are medications now for those illnesses. so just be compliant with your meds and be a good patient. you should be fine
