Strange noises and movement in lungs

Need Help - Worried about possible lung damage - undiagnosed

I live in Mozambique and traveled the South of China for a month in July 2006. Since returning I had a bad case of the flu. I never got over the flu and struggled with a cough for month. Eventually the bottom of my lungs began to fell as if they were puffing and made strange noises. X-rays were clear. I used 2 sets of antibiotics. Four months later I went to a Spec Physician and he gave me Ventese 2 puffs 4 x/d and budeflam 2 x 2/d. The coughing has stopped and the lungs appear clear on x-ray is still clear. Now five months later I still can’t sleep. I can hear and feel movement in my lungs. I am not running fevers at all. Sometimes I am aware of my lungs when I sit down or walk down the stairs, I feel them. Does this make sense? I am not short of breath, and am not wheezing. I have never had asthma before. I am very worried about possible expose to something either in China or Mozambique were I believe various bacterial infections are common. We are quite far from good medical facilities. Do you have any idea what the problem is. 5 Months is just too long I feel as is I need to get this sorted sooner than later. I have never had this before. Thank you so much - Sonia Dawson

I was wondering if you have had any luck finding out what is happening with your lungs. I have had similar symptoms for the past 2 months. My symptoms occur in my lower left lung, these are the following symptoms: - Feels as if there gurgling in my lung...i can both hear and feel it.
- Bottom of rib cage is sore
- From a lying position when i turn side to side i can feel movement in lung.

I have searched for days trying to find info with no luck, i am hoping that you have found out something.
I have spoken to my doctor and he placed me on antibiotics, they helped while i was on them but symptoms came back 4-5 days after meds were finished.
Any info would be very helpful.
Thank you

I too have been feeling sore lower lungs, it feels as if my lower parts of my lungs are bruised(I know that its not possible, but its the best way to describe the feeling). If you happen to find an answer to your problem please reply some answers.
