I'm having increasingly trouble breathing. I'm put on a 12 weeks cortisone cycle while waiting for a new CT and a doctor appointment in mid January. Nice going through December not knowing much 😔 What does all this say (badly Google translated)? IPF? NSIP? «Spirometry: FVC 2,1 L (43 %), FEV1 1,75 L (45 %), 83 % av FVC. PEF 5,7 (65 %) Gas diffusion: DLCO 3,5 (37 b%), KCO 1,23 (81 %) Pletysmography: TLC 3,19 (46 %), RV 1,68 (80 %), 52 % av TLC. Total lung capacity is barely 46%. Fine reticular thickenings with bronchiectasis with basal predominance in both lower lobes. Subpleural clearing and relatively sharp demarcation against what is perceived as normal lung tissue.

Can we call post COVID Changes as NSIP pattern if it is like NSIP
Excellent
Thanks Dr!
