Question 1

What can you make of my mom's recent X-ray? She's 60, and after testing positive for COVID antibodies 18 days after her first symptoms, the new X-ray shows some prominent bronchovascular markings with a patchy non-homogeneous opacity in the left lower zone. It also mentions something about a bulky right hilum with calcified lymph nodes. Should I be worried about these findings?

Question 2

I just got my mom's chest X-ray results, and it mentions "small calcified nodules" in her right middle zone and right apical region, and it says something about tuberculosis. I'm really worried. Can you explain what this means? Is it something serious or risky that I should be concerned about? Also, what kind of treatment might be needed for this? I'm pretty stressed and just want to make sure she's okay. Can you help clarify all this for me?

Question 3

I'm noticing this unusual sound coming from my left lung when I breathe deeply, and it makes my left side vibrate. It goes away after I cough, but I'm still concerned. I've had three X-rays and those came back normal. I also did spirometry, and that was normal too. I'm a smoker, and my recent hemoglobin level was 17.90, RBS was 5.81, and PCV was 51.80. Is this something I should be worried about? Am I okay?

Accepted Answer

Raised hemoglobin in the reports. Physician opinion is advised to the patient.
