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 dealing with tuberculosis for a month now and have been on medication since February 4, 2017. I quit my job to rest and recover, but I'm now considering getting back to work. Is it safe for me to go back now, or is there still a risk of spreading the infection? Plus, I've been having a mild fever with chills about once a weekis that something to worry about? Could you offer some advice on what I should do?

I'm really worried about my dad. His CT scan just showed that he has right-sided pleural effusion with a solid component, and there's something about subsegmental collapse consolidation. Could these findings mean he might have developed some kind of malignancy? I'm not sure what to think and could really use some guidance.

No we can't tell only on CT reports
