What Is My Chest X Ray Result Indicative Of?

I had a chest xray in Oct and they said the impression was no acute chect pathology, copd and calicified left lower granuloma. now in feb I have another chest xray and they say stable no acute disease. I have never smoked and I went to a specialist and he told me my oxygen was so good he wouldn t even do a breathing test and I had no symptoms of COPD. I m just curious because this is from the same hospital giving these result. Recently the report saysPleural apical thickening. Cardiomediastinal silhouette and visuralized bony thorax are stable no evidence of acute pulmonary pathology. The last part is what I want to know what it means from the recent report . the thicking sounds like exposed to asbetoes but I haven t been exposed to asbetos
