I'm feeling kind of worried because I've been experiencing some heavy breathing on and off for a few days now. I have an allergy and I'm already taking montelukast tablets and using my inhaler with 250mg three times a day. The weird thing is, I don't have any trouble when I'm walking or jogging, and my oxygen levels are good at 98%. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I'm really worried after my CT scan showed that more than 30% of my lungs have moderate damage from Covid. Is this something that can be cured, or should I be super concerned about long-term effects?
yes it is curable

I've been dealing with ongoing health issues, starting with demotomiyositis back in 2005 which required steroids like dexcona. These treatments led to complications, including a lung infection, for which I had to undergo several DOTS courses in 2012, 2014, and an 18-month course that wrapped up in April 2017. Recently, I unexpectedly began coughing up blood right around Diwali and had to be hospitalized twice in just one month. This happened again quite recently with more blood from the mouth. I'm really worried about what's going on and wondering if this bleeding might be something I shouldn't worry about. What kind of treatment should I be looking at for this? Are the medications I'm getting in Kota sufficient, or should I be considering a specialist in AIIMS for a more thorough evaluation?
The presence of blood from the mouth is not normal and should be taken seriously, as it could indicate a serious underlying condition. Immediate medical evaluation is necessary to determine the cause and appropriate treatment. It is advisable to seek a second opinion at a specialized hospital like AIIMS for a comprehensive assessment, especially if the current treatment in Kota isn't providing adequate relief.
