Can I still have COPD with a normal chest CT scan?
Does I have COPD with Normal Chest CT Scan Show?
Hi anandmistry, and thanks for your question. You may be aware we cannot provide medical advice or diagnostics over the internet (for your own safety), but your concern certainly warrants a reply.
There are several different diagnostic tests that can result in a definitive diagnosis of COPD. I thought this article, which focuses on a COPD diagnosis, might provide you with some additional insight for your very real concern: https://copd.net/diagnosis/. I do hope you find it to be helpful.
To be sure of your own specific medical circumstances, I would suggest you discuss your concerns further with your physician.
What do you think?
Wishing you well,

I have read article which you have shared with me. I can understand it better now and I am going to talk with my doctor for better understanding. I really appreciate your answer and time.
Thanks,
Anand MistryHi again, Anand Mistry - and good afternoon to you, too. (it is now 1:15 pm here in New York).
I am so glad the article on COPD and diagnosis was helpful for you and appreciate you letting me know that.
Hopefully, your next appointment with the doctor will be beneficial for you in determining the diagnosis (and treatment, as necessary), the physician feels is appropriate for your specific case.
Please do check back and keep us posted as to your progress. If there is anything we can assist you with, please let me or any other moderator / team member know.
