I'm a bit concerned and curious about something. After having COVID a month ago, all my symptoms have gone away, and my SpO2 levels have been normal for a while. My chest X-ray came back normal too, which is reassuring, but I'm wondering if its still possible for there to be any fibrosis that wouldnt show up yet? Or does a normal X-ray mean everything's clear? Im just trying to understand what a normal X-ray really tells me at this point. I'm 34 and havent had any other symptoms.

I'm a bit worried about my latest lung X-ray results which mention an "apicolordotic view is suggested" for some pneumonia in both parahilar regions and a pleuro-diaphragmatic reaction in the right lower lung, affecting both hemidiaphragms. Could you explain what all this means? Is it something I should be concerned about?

The chest X-ray report suggests pneumonia in both parahilar regions and the right lower lung, along with a pleuro-diaphragmatic reaction, indicating inflammation of the lung linings and diaphragm, and recommends an apicolordotic view for further evaluation, which is a specialized X-ray view to better assess the lung apices and guide treatment for the pneumonia.

I'm reaching out because I previously asked about this and got a response saying that the Seretide Accuhaler has no side effects. But my brother has been using it, and he's having a tough time with what seem to be side effects. I'm really worried and wondering if there's an alternative treatment he could try. Can you help with some advice?

I'm taking Montek LC, usually half a tablet at night, but sometimes I get shortness of breath during the day. Is it okay to take another half tablet in the morning too if that happens?

Montek LC is typically taken once a day, and it's best to follow your doctor's instructions. If you're experiencing shortness of breath or choking during the day, it's important to consult your doctor to discuss adjusting the dosage or considering an alternative treatment.
