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 had TB twice, first in 1997 and again in 2012, with surgeries both times. I completed a 2-year course of meds like T.combutol, T.monopass, and others. Now I'm fine, but my weight has gone up to 89 kg. Recent tests show uric acid at 8.1, total cholesterol 207, HDL 35, LDL 139, triglycerides 125. My doctor suggested losing 17 kg in 2 years through gym. Do you think I really need to lose that much weight, given my medical history?

yes wt reduction is advised.

I'm really worried because even though my chest X-ray came back normal, I've been having breathing problems for several days now. My oxygen level was 96 just yesterday, and I'm not sure if that's okay. Plus, my lymphocytes are a little high. Can an X-ray miss something serious? What should I do?
