I'm a bit concerned because I've been told that there's minimal fibrosis and atelectasis in my right lung's middle lobe and lingula. Could you help me understand what exactly this means? Is it something I should be worried about, and what steps should I take next? Would really appreciate any insights or advice you could give me.

I'm looking for some advice from a pulmonologist. Lately, I've been feeling dizzy in the evenings and experiencing a bit of shortness of breath, even though all my blood reports are normal. I heard that Practo might have free doctors available online. Could someone take a look at my reports and help me figure out what's going on?
