I'm really worried and feeling quite anxious. I had COVID last month and was doing fine, but now, 15 days into recovery, I've started having a productive cough and some mild pain when I cough. I got an X-ray that showed hilar lymphadenopathy. My oxygen is at 99, blood pressure is normal, and I don't have a fever. I just got my CBC count done and attached the report. I'm terrified about what this might mean. Is this something serious? Will I be okay? Here's the treatment I'm currently on: Monocef O CV, Amcon, Mucinac 600, and today they added Deflacort 6. Can you help me understand what's going on and what I should do next?

I'm dealing with tuberculosis and I'm a bit confused. My PCR test came back positive but the culture report was negative. Also, after one month of treatment, my sputum test is negative too. I've already completed two months of treatment. What does this all mean? Should I be worried about the differing test results?

I'm really worried because my pulmonologist mentioned something about "allergic airway disease" after my PFT test. I don't really understand what that is. Is it serious? Also, the doctor prescribed me Ofloxacin O2 tablets and Fexodine tablets. Can you explain what these medications are for and if I should be concerned about taking them?

no its allergy ,the medicines given is good , continue it

I've been dealing with a breathing issue for the past three months. I can breathe fine through my nose, but when I try using my mouth, it's like I can't get a full breath, and sometimes I feel a pain in my chest. It's been worrying me. Could there be something going on with my lungs or chest that I should get checked out?
