A person does not need to smoke, work with chemicals or fine dust, to develop diffuse lung disease, with or without x-ray changes.  Put the lack of exposure aside.  This sounds like some type of diffuse lung disease.  You should see a pulmonologist, to try to make a diagnosis, hopefully a treatable one.
