I'm having trouble getting enough oxygen. I've got a cold and I'm coughing up a bit of phlegm, but there's not much of it and its brown. I've also got nodules on my lungs, and the largest one is around 5 cm. Does this sound like something I should be worried about?

View allI was hoping to get some advice about my recovery. I had a negative antigen test on August 25th, but by the 27th, I started having fever and weakness, and then on the 29th, I experienced breathing issues. After going for a HRCT on August 30th, it showed Co Rad 4, and I got admitted the same day. I went through a week of treatment with Remedesivir, Meropenam, and Azithromycin, among other things. After being discharged 10 days ago, I took a 5-day course of Fluvir and some other medicines. Now, my pulse and oxygen levels are stable, but I'm still feeling weak. Do you think I need to take any medicine for the weakness, or should I talk to a doctor about it? Is this kind of weakness normal after such treatments?

I'm a bit concerned because I've had this cough for about 10 days now. It switches between being dry and wet, and recently, I've started having some abdominal pain when I cough. Could this be something serious? What should I do about it?

I recently had an x-ray for a job requirement and the results mentioned minimal hazed infiltrates in the lateral aspect of my left upper lung, and fibrotic densities in the left perihilar region. They also asked for an apicolordotic chest x-ray. I had PTB back in 2014 and was cleared after six months of treatment. Does this mean the PTB might have returned or is it something else?
Hello, based on your recent X-ray results, it seems there are some mild changes in your left lung, possibly related to previous pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). The fibrotic densities suggest healed areas from your past illness. The doctor is likely asking for an apicolordotic chest X-ray to get a clearer view of the upper lung for further assessment. It's good to monitor, but these findings don't necessarily indicate active disease.
