But there is really no easy answer to your question. Without having a diagnosis of the exact lung condition no one would be able to answer about treatment, it effectiveness, and/or stopping progression.

Asthma (even adult onset from AI disease) is treatable. Interstitial lung disease is different based upon BOTH severity and what is the underlining AI condition. Without more info, it's impossible to guess.

Let's reassess your question after you get more results.
I got a copy of the labworks requested by the pulmonologist:

Anca panel
Protein Electro
Sjorgren's Ab, Anti-SS-A/SS-B
Anti GBM IgA
Rheumatoid Arthritis Factor
Anti DsDNA Antibodies, Anti-Jo-1, Antinuclear Antibodies Direct, Immunoglobulin A, Qn
Alpha1 Antitrypsin

Everything is negative or within normal range.

I am back to square one.
