I recently got an HRCT scan done for a surgery, and the report mentioned a small fibrotic patch in the middle lobe close to the oblique fissure. The rest of the HRCT of my chest is basically normal with no signs of viral pneumonia. But I'm pretty worried about this fibrotic patch. I dont have any bad habits or anything like that. Should I be concerned about this?

View allI've been experiencing this slight breathlessness for the past few days, like I constantly need to take deep breaths every few seconds. Occasionally, there's also a mild pain in my chest. I saw a local doctor who thinks it might be Air Hunger, maybe from exertion or anxiety, and he suggested I try some energy boosters. I'm a little worried it might be something more serious. Should I be more concerned or is this something not too serious?

I've been having this breathlessness issue for a while now. It's strange because I don't have asthma and my blood pressure is normal. The doctor did some kind of small lung test using this tiny machine on my finger, and that came out normal too. But I keep getting this really frequent cough and have problems with acidity. Could they be related? I'm wondering if this is something serious. What's your take on it?
While your symptoms might not necessarily indicate something major, it's important to address them proactively. GERD, post-nasal drip, or even stress could be contributing to your symptoms. If the symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor for further evaluation to rule out other conditions

I'm really worried about how my body is reacting to the ATT medications. It seems like none of the four drugs are tolerable, whether I take them alone or together. I've started getting ulcers in my mouth and throat, and I'm constantly feeling weak and tired. Could you please advise on how I can manage these side effects or if there are any alternative treatments I should consider?
