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've been having this issue where I'm coughing up green and yellow phlegm for the past four days. It used to be white but then turned to green and yellow. My nose feels really congested, but I don't have a fever, fatigue, or any lethargy. I went through a CECT scan of my thorax earlier and everything came back normal, no abnormalities. Usually, this starts in the early morning and lasts through the night, but it doesn't disturb my sleep. Should I be worried, or is there something specific going on that I should get checked out?

take a course of antibiotic like amoxyclav for 5 days teice a day

I've just tested positive for Covid-19 and I'm experiencing mild symptoms, along with some difficulty in breathing. Should I consider getting an HRCT scan? I'm a bit concerned and would appreciate some guidance.

I was diagnosed with TB back in May 2019, finished treatment by March, but I've been feeling breathless again. The CT showed scars and calcification, and now, a year later, these issues have come back. Could this mean I'm developing Pulmonary Fibrosis?
