Atelectasis and partial lung collapse

Hello has anyone got this and ground glass opacity from a CT in my lungs.

I'm wondering if a cpap or bipap machines will help inflate patches of collapse or help oxygen.

I'd pay for them myself just struggling to walk upstairs is so depressing and I feel no one really gives a damn. Just me reading, researching as an ex nurse how can I help myself. Thanks

I'm sorry I can't help, but you might like to post in the British Lung foundation forum. Everyone posting here has Asthma, but sometimes with other things. So most people can help with asthma or allergy related problems

Good luck
