I've been feeling short of breath for quite a while now, and honestly, it's starting to worry me. I had a chest X-ray and a CT scan, and both came back normal, but I'm still having trouble catching my breath. And now there's this chest pain whenever I try to move around. I'm just not sure what's going on. Any ideas?

Patient is advised pulmonary function test (PFT)and a chest x-ray .

I'm on day 28 since I first noticed my symptoms and my CT scan showed mild pneumonia with a score of 525. Sometimes it still feels hard to take a deep breath. Can I stop isolating now?
