This is fairly complex, so it may take a while.
Well the first time I noticed it, it was after phone sex with the gf at the time. So I'm in a similar position.
To the OP, I used to be a distance runner, still am. This is how I had it explained to me by the pulmonologists:
In the picture you posted you can notice the very edge of the lungs, where it's red and white? For you and I it's "bumpy" or blistery, on anyone it's smooth, allowing the lung to glide evenly when they breath in and out. The space inbetween these blisters, along with the blisters themselves are filled with blood and fluid. In most cases, this isn't an issue.
Occasionally these "blebs"(that's what they're called) pop, releasing positive pressure into a negative pressure environment (chest cavity) creating neutral pressure and not allowing the lung to reinflate after you breath out.
This leads to a lung collapse % usually on the lung where the bleb popped, since it's closer, though it may float around - that's why you have the gurgling sound.
Do you know your lung collapse % aprox?
